Abstract

有效的金黄色葡萄球菌疫苗可能需要几种抗原性组分,因此鉴定了金黄色葡萄球菌抗原的各种组合用于免疫。这些多肽可任选与金黄色葡萄球菌糖联用。An effective S. aureus vaccine may require several antigenic components, and therefore various combinations of S. aureus antigens have been identified for use in immunization. These polypeptides may optionally be combined with S. aureus saccharides.

Description

用于免疫接种以抵御金黄色葡萄球菌的组合物Composition for immunization against Staphylococcus aureus

技术领域 technical field

本发明涉及衍生自金黄色葡萄球菌(S.aureus)的抗原和它们在免疫接种中的应用。The present invention relates to antigens derived from Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and their use in immunization.

背景技术 Background technique

金黄色葡萄球菌(Staphylococcus aureus)是革兰氏阳性细菌。每年美国的死亡率超过包括HIV/AIDS在内的任何其它感染性疾病,金黄色葡萄球菌是血流、下呼吸道、皮肤和软组织感染的主要原因。目前尚无批准的疫苗。在2005年的III期临床试验中,与安慰剂组相比,基于5和8型细菌的表面多糖的混合物的疫苗(StaphVAXTM)未能降低感染。Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive bacterium. Killing more people in the United States each year than any other infectious disease, including HIV/AIDS, Staphylococcus aureus is the leading cause of bloodstream, lower respiratory tract, skin and soft tissue infections. There is currently no approved vaccine. In a phase III clinical trial in 2005, a vaccine based on a mixture of surface polysaccharides of bacteria types 5 and 8 (StaphVAX ) failed to reduce infection compared to placebo.

参考文献1报道了默克公司(Merck)和细胞间公司(Intercell)的“V710”疫苗正对经历心胸外科手术的患者进行2/3期试验。V710疫苗基于单抗原,IsdB[2],这是保守性铁-螯合性细胞表面蛋白质。Reference 1 reports that Merck and Intercell's "V710" vaccine is in phase 2/3 trials in patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery. The V710 vaccine is based on a single antigen, IsdB [2], which is a conserved iron-chelating cell surface protein.

金黄色葡萄球菌导致从皮肤感染到危及生命的疾病,例如肺炎、脑膜炎、骨髓炎、菌血症、心内膜炎、中毒性休克综合征、器官脓肿和败血症等一系列疾病。该细菌具有多种毒力因子(virulence factor),它们在其生命周期的不同阶段差别表达,因此,能预防一种疾病的疫苗可能无法预防另一种。例如,V710疫苗可有效抵御金黄色葡萄球菌的血液扩散(hematic spread),但对于肺炎可能无效,可能无法引发任何调理活性。本发明的目的之一是提供保护作用以免血液扩散和肺炎的疫苗,其还能引发调理应答。Staphylococcus aureus causes a range of diseases from skin infections to life-threatening diseases such as pneumonia, meningitis, osteomyelitis, bacteremia, endocarditis, toxic shock syndrome, organ abscesses and sepsis. The bacterium has multiple virulence factors that are differentially expressed at different stages of its life cycle, so a vaccine that protects against one disease may not protect against another. For example, the V710 vaccine is effective against the hematic spread of Staphylococcus aureus, but may not be effective against pneumonia and may fail to elicit any opsonic activity. One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a vaccine that protects against hematogenous spread and pneumonia, and that also elicits an opsonized response.

因此,本领域仍需要鉴定其它和改进的抗原以便用于金黄色葡萄球菌疫苗,特别是可用于抵御多种金黄色葡萄球菌病理的疫苗。Accordingly, there remains a need in the art to identify additional and improved antigens for use in S. aureus vaccines, particularly vaccines useful against a variety of S. aureus pathologies.

本发明抗原组中鉴定的各抗原可与偶联糖抗原联用。因此,本发明提供包含以下组合的免疫原性组合物:Each of the antigens identified in the panel of antigens of the present invention can be used in combination with conjugated carbohydrate antigens. Accordingly, the present invention provides immunogenic compositions comprising the combination of:

(1)选自第一、第二、第三或第四抗原组(如上所述)的一种或多种抗原;和(1) one or more antigens selected from the first, second, third or fourth antigen group (as described above); and

(2)一种或多种金黄色葡萄球菌表多糖和载体蛋白的偶联物。(2) One or more conjugates of Staphylococcus aureus exopolysaccharide and carrier protein.

该组合的组分(2)中所用的偶联物包括糖部分和载体部分。糖部分来自金黄色葡萄球菌表多糖,其是多聚-N-乙酰氨基葡萄糖(PNAG)。该糖可以是多糖,其尺寸在细菌表多糖纯化期间产生,或是通过片段化此类多糖获得的寡糖,例如尺寸在超过400kDa到75和400kDa之间,或在10和75kDa之间,或最多30个重复单元。糖部分可具有不同的N-乙酰化程度,如参考文献11所述,PNAG可以是低于40%N-乙酰化(例如,低于35、30、20、15、10或5%N-乙酰化;脱乙酰化PNAG也称为dPNAG)。PNAG的脱乙酰化表位可引发能介导调理杀伤的抗体。PNAG可以O-琥珀酰化或未O-琥珀酰化,例如其可在低于25、20、15、10、5、2、1或0.1%的残基上O-琥珀酰化。The conjugate used in component (2) of the combination includes a sugar moiety and a carrier moiety. The sugar moiety is derived from the S. aureus exopolysaccharide, which is poly-N-acetylglucosamine (PNAG). The sugar may be a polysaccharide of a size produced during the purification of bacterial epipolysaccharides, or an oligosaccharide obtained by fragmenting such polysaccharides, for example between 75 and 400 kDa in size, or between 10 and 75 kDa, or Up to 30 repeating units. Sugar moieties can have varying degrees of N-acetylation, and as described in reference 11, PNAG can be less than 40% N-acetylated (e.g., less than 35, 30, 20, 15, 10, or 5% N-acetylated deacetylated PNAG (also known as dPNAG). The deacetylated epitope of PNAG elicits antibodies that mediate opsonic killing. PNAG may or may not be O-succinylated, for example it may be O-succinylated on less than 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, 2, 1 or 0.1 % of the residues.

本发明还提供一种包含以下组合的免疫原性组合物:The present invention also provides an immunogenic composition comprising:

(2)金黄色葡萄球菌荚膜糖和载体蛋白的一种或多种偶联物。(2) One or more conjugates of Staphylococcus aureus capsular saccharide and carrier protein.

该组合的组分(2)中所用的偶联物包括糖部分和载体部分。所述糖部分来自金黄色葡萄球菌的荚膜糖。所述糖可以是多糖,其尺寸在细菌荚膜糖的纯化期间产生,或者可以是片段化此类多糖获得的寡糖。可以从金黄色葡萄球菌的任何合适菌株(或具有相似或相同糖的任何细菌)获得荚膜糖,例如来自5型和/或8型金黄色葡萄球菌菌株和/或336型金黄色葡萄球菌菌株。感染性金黄色葡萄球菌的大多数菌株含有5型或8型荚膜糖。二者在其重复单元中均具有FucNAcp以及ManNAcA,其可用于引入巯基以供连接。5型糖的重复单元是→4)-β-D-ManNAcA-(1→4)-α-L-FucNAc(3OAc)-(1→3)-β-D-FucNAc-(1→,而8型糖的重复单元是→3)-β-D-ManNAcA(4OAc)-(1→3)-α-L-FucNAc(1→3)-α-D-FucNAc(1→。336型糖是不含O-乙酰化的β-连接己糖胺[12、13],其与抗336菌株(ATCC 55804)的抗体交叉反应。典型的组合是5型和8型糖,可将336型糖加入该配对[14]。The conjugate used in component (2) of the combination includes a sugar moiety and a carrier moiety. The sugar moiety is derived from the capsular sugar of Staphylococcus aureus. The sugars may be polysaccharides, the size of which arises during the purification of bacterial capsular sugars, or may be oligosaccharides obtained by fragmenting such polysaccharides. Capsular saccharides can be obtained from any suitable strain of S. aureus (or any bacterium with similar or identical saccharides), for example from S. aureus strains type 5 and/or 8 and/or S. aureus strain type 336 . Most strains of infectious S. aureus contain type 5 or type 8 capsular saccharides. Both have FucNAcp and ManNAcA in their repeat units, which can be used to introduce sulfhydryl groups for attachment. The repeat unit of sugar type 5 is →4)-β-D-ManNAcA-(1→4)-α-L-FucNAc(3OAc)-(1→3)-β-D-FucNAc-(1→, while 8 The repeating unit of sugar type is →3)-β-D-ManNAcA(4OAc)-(1→3)-α-L-FucNAc(1→3)-α-D-FucNAc(1→. Type 336 sugar is not Contains O-acetylated β-linked hexosamines [12, 13] which cross-react with antibodies against the 336 strain (ATCC 55804). Typical combinations are type 5 and type 8 sugars to which type 336 sugars can be added Pairing [14].

本发明还提供包含以下组合的免疫原性组合物:The present invention also provides immunogenic compositions comprising the combination of:

(1)选自第一、第二、第三或第四抗原组的一种或多种抗原;(1) one or more antigens selected from the first, second, third or fourth antigen group;

(2)金黄色葡萄球菌表多糖和载体蛋白的一种或多种偶联物;和(2) one or more conjugates of S. aureus exopolysaccharide and carrier protein; and

(3)金黄色葡萄球菌荚膜糖和载体蛋白的一种或多种偶联物。(3) One or more conjugates of Staphylococcus aureus capsular saccharide and carrier protein.

这些偶联物中的载体部分通常是蛋白质,但通常不是(1)中的抗原之一。典型的载体蛋白是细菌毒素,如白喉或破伤风毒素,或者其类毒素或突变体或片段。CRM197白喉毒素突变体是有用的[15]。其它合适的载体蛋白包括脑膜炎奈瑟球菌(N.meningitidis)外膜蛋白复合物[16]、合成肽[17,18]、热激蛋白[19,20]、百日咳蛋白[21,22]、细胞因子[23]、淋巴因子[23]、激素[23]、生长因子[23]、包含多种来自各种病原体衍生抗原的人CD4+T细胞表位的人工蛋白[24]如N19[25]、流感嗜血杆菌的蛋白D[26-28]、肺炎球菌溶血素[29]或其无毒衍生物[30]、肺炎球菌表面蛋白PspA[31]、摄铁蛋白[32]、来自艰难梭菌(C.difficile)的毒素A或B[33]、重组铜绿假单胞菌(P.aeruginosa)胞外蛋白A(rEPA)[34]等。在一些实施方式中,所述载体蛋白是金黄色葡萄球菌蛋白,例如选自第一、第二、第三或第四抗原组的抗原。The carrier moiety in these conjugates is usually a protein, but usually not one of the antigens in (1). Typical carrier proteins are bacterial toxins, such as diphtheria or tetanus toxins, or toxoids or mutants or fragments thereof. The CRM197 diphtheria toxin mutant is useful [15]. Other suitable carrier proteins include N. meningitidis outer membrane protein complex [16], synthetic peptides [17, 18], heat shock proteins [19, 20], pertussis proteins [21, 22], Cytokines[23], lymphokines[23], hormones[23], growth factors[23], artificial proteins containing various human CD4 + T cell epitopes from various pathogen-derived antigens[24] such as N19[25 ], protein D of Haemophilus influenzae[26-28], pneumolysin[29] or its non-toxic derivatives[30], pneumococcal surface protein PspA[31], ferritin[32], from difficile Clostridium (C.difficile) toxin A or B [33], recombinant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.aeruginosa) extracellular protein A (rEPA) [34] and so on. In some embodiments, the carrier protein is a Staphylococcus aureus protein, eg, an antigen selected from the first, second, third or fourth antigen group.

如果组合物包含一种以上偶联物,各偶联物可利用相同或不同的载体蛋白。If the composition comprises more than one conjugate, each conjugate may utilize the same or a different carrier protein.

偶联物可具有过量载体(w/w)或过量糖(w/w)。在一些实施方式中,偶联物可包含相同重量的载体和糖。Conjugates may have excess carrier (w/w) or excess sugar (w/w). In some embodiments, the conjugate may comprise the same weight of carrier and sugar.

载体分子可直接与载体共价偶联,或通过接头偶联。可通过(例如)糖和载体之间的还原胺化(如参考文献35和36所述),实现与蛋白质的直接连接。首先需要通过,例如氧化活化糖。可用任何已知方法,如参考文献37和38所述的方法通过接头基团进行连接。优选的连接类型是己二酸接头,其可通过以下方式形成:将游离-NH2基团(如通过胺化引入葡聚糖中)与己二酸偶联(例如,利用二酰亚胺活化),然后将蛋白质偶联于所得的糖-己二酸中间体[39,40]。另一种优选连接形式是羰基接头,这种连接可通过以下方式形成:使糖CDI的游离羟基发生反应[41,42],然后与蛋白质反应形成氨基甲酸酯连接。其它接头包括β-丙酰胺基[43]、硝基苯基-乙胺[44]、卤代酰基卤化物[45]、糖苷键[46]、6-氨基己酸[47]、ADH[48]、C4到C12部分[49]等。也采用碳二亚胺缩合反应[50]。The carrier molecule can be covalently coupled directly to the carrier, or via a linker. Direct linkage to proteins can be achieved, for example, by reductive amination between a sugar and a carrier (as described in refs 35 and 36). First, the sugar needs to be activated by, for example, oxidation. Linkage via a linker group can be accomplished by any known method, such as those described in references 37 and 38. The preferred type of linkage is an adipic acid linker, which can be formed by coupling a free -NH2 group (e.g., into dextran by amination) to adipic acid (e.g., using imide-activated ), followed by coupling of proteins to the resulting sugar-adipate intermediate [39,40]. Another preferred form of attachment is the carbonyl linker, which can be formed by reacting the free hydroxyl groups of the sugar CDI [41, 42] followed by reaction with the protein to form a carbamate linkage. Other linkers include β-propionamido [43], nitrophenyl-ethylamine [44], haloacyl halides [45], glycosidic linkages [46], 6-aminocaproic acid [47], ADH [48 ], C 4 to C 12 parts [49], etc. The carbodiimide condensation reaction was also employed [50].

可采用各种方式制备PNAG偶联物,例如通过包括以下步骤的方法:a)加入包含马来酰亚胺基团的接头来活化PNAG以形成活化的PNAG;b)加入包含巯基的接头来活化载体蛋白以形成活化的载体蛋白;和c)使活化的PNAG与活化的载体蛋白反应形成PNAG-载体蛋白偶联物;或通过包括以下步骤的方法:a)加入包含巯基的接头来活化PNAG以形成活化的PNAG;b)加入包含马来酰亚胺基团的接头来活化载体蛋白以形成活化的载体蛋白;和c)使活化的PNAG与活化的载体蛋白反应形成PNAG-载体蛋白偶联物;或通过包括以下步骤的方法:a)加入包含巯基的接头来活化PNAG以形成活化的PNAG;b)加入包含巯基的接头来活化载体蛋白以形成活化的载体蛋白;和c)使活化的PNAG与活化的载体蛋白反应形成PNAG-载体蛋白偶联物。PNAG conjugates can be prepared in various ways, for example by a method comprising: a) adding a linker comprising a maleimide group to activate PNAG to form activated PNAG; b) adding a linker comprising a sulfhydryl group to activate carrier protein to form an activated carrier protein; and c) reacting activated PNAG with an activated carrier protein to form a PNAG-carrier protein conjugate; or by a method comprising the steps of: a) adding a linker comprising a sulfhydryl group to activate PNAG to forming activated PNAG; b) adding a linker comprising a maleimide group to activate the carrier protein to form an activated carrier protein; and c) reacting the activated PNAG with the activated carrier protein to form a PNAG-carrier protein conjugate or by a method comprising the steps of: a) adding a linker comprising a sulfhydryl group to activate PNAG to form activated PNAG; b) adding a linker comprising a sulfhydryl group to activate a carrier protein to form an activated carrier protein; and c) making activated PNAG React with activated carrier protein to form PNAG-carrier protein conjugate.

SEQ ID NO:224是SEQ ID NO:1的有用片段(‘ClfA40-559’)。该片段省去了对着SEQ ID NO:1的C-末端的长重复区域。SEQ ID NO: 224 is a useful fragment of SEQ ID NO: 1 ('ClfA 40-559 '). This fragment omits the long repeat region towards the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO:1.

clfBcfB

“clfB”抗原注释为“凝聚因子B”。在NCTC 8325菌株中,clfB是SAOUHSC_02963,具有氨基酸序列SEQ ID NO:2(GI:88196585)。在Newman菌株中,其是nwmn_2529(GI:151222741)。The "clfB" antigen is annotated as "clotting factor B".

SEQ ID NO:163是SEQ ID NO:2的有用片段(‘ClfB45-552’)。该片段包含ClfB中最暴露的结构域,更易用于工业水平。其还降低抗原与人蛋白的相似性。依据ClfB的3-结构域模型的其它有用片段包括:ClfB45-360(也称为CLfB-N12;SEQ ID NO:196);ClfB212-542(也称为CLfB-N23;SEQ ID NO:197);和ClfB360-542(也称为CLfB-N3;SEQ ID NO:198)。SEQ ID NO: 163 is a useful fragment of SEQ ID NO: 2 ('ClfB 45-552 '). This fragment contains the most exposed domain in ClfB and is easier to use at industrial level. It also reduces the similarity of the antigen to human proteins. Other useful fragments based on the 3-domain model of CIfB include: CIfB 45-360 (also known as CLfB-N12; SEQ ID NO: 196); CIfB 212-542 (also known as CLfB-N23; SEQ ID NO: 197 ); and CIfB 360-542 (also known as CLfB-N3; SEQ ID NO: 198).

可通过化学灭活(例如,利用甲醛、戊二醛或其它交联剂)避免本发明组合物中Hla的毒性。然而,优选利用Hla的突变形式除去其毒性而保留其免疫原性。本领域已知此类脱毒突变体。一种有用的Hla抗原在SEQ ID NO:14的残基61(成熟抗原的残基35)处具有突变(即,省去前26个N-末端氨基酸后=SEQ ID NO:231的残基35)。因此,残基61可以不是组氨酸,反而可以是,例如Ile、Val或优选Leu。还可在该位置采用His-Arg突变。例如,SEQ ID NO:150是成熟的突变型Hla-H35L序列(即,含H35L突变的SEQ ID NO:231),有用的Hla抗原包含SEQ ID NO:150。另一有用的突变用较短的序列替换长环,例如用四聚体,如PSGS(SEQ ID NO:225)替换SEQ ID NO:14的残基136-174处的39聚体,例如SEQ ID NO:189(其还包含H35L突变)和SEQID NO:216(其不含H35L突变)中所示的。另一有用的突变用,例如亮氨酸替代残基Y101(SEQ ID NO:242)。另一有用的突变用,例如亮氨酸替代残基D152(SEQ ID NO:243)。另一有用的突变用,例如亮氨酸替代残基H35和Y101(SEQ ID NO:244)。另一有用的突变用,例如亮氨酸替代残基H35和D152(SEQ ID NO:245)。Toxicity of HIa in compositions of the invention can be avoided by chemical inactivation (eg, using formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde or other cross-linking agents). However, it is preferred to utilize a mutated form of HIa to remove its toxicity while retaining its immunogenicity. Such detoxified mutants are known in the art. A useful Hla antigen has a mutation at residue 61 of SEQ ID NO: 14 (residue 35 of the mature antigen) (i.e. after omission of the first 26 N-terminal amino acids = residue 35 of SEQ ID NO: 231 ). Thus, instead of histidine, residue 61 may be, for example, Ile, Val or preferably Leu. A His-Arg mutation can also be employed at this position. For example, SEQ ID NO: 150 is a mature mutant Hla-H35L sequence (i.e., SEQ ID NO: 231 containing the H35L mutation), and useful Hla antigens comprise SEQ ID NO: 150. Another useful mutation replaces the long loop with a shorter sequence, for example replacing the 39mer at residues 136-174 of SEQ ID NO: 14 with a tetramer, such as PSGS (SEQ ID NO: 225), such as SEQ ID NO: 225 Shown in NO: 189 (it also comprises H35L mutation) and SEQID NO: 216 (it does not contain H35L mutation). Another useful mutation replaces residue Y101 with, for example, leucine (SEQ ID NO: 242). Another useful mutation replaces residue D152 (SEQ ID NO: 243) with, for example, leucine. Another useful mutation replaces residues H35 and Y101 with, for example, leucine (SEQ ID NO: 244). Another useful mutation replaces residues H35 and D152 with, for example, leucine (SEQ ID NO: 245).

This fragment contains all 5 SpA Ig-binding domains (N- to C-terminus in natural order E, D, A, B, C), including the most exposed domain of SpA. It also reduces the similarity of the antigen to human proteins. Other useful fragments can omit 1, 2, 3 or 4 of the native A, B, C, D and/or E domains to prevent excessive B cell expansion and subsequent apoptosis if spa functions as a B cell This may occur through the action of superantigens. As reported in ref. 71, other useful fragments may comprise only 1, 2, 3 or 4 of the native A, B, C, D and/or E domains, e.g. only the SpA(A) domain and not Contains B to E, or only the SpA(D) domain without A, B, C or E, etc. Thus, spa antigens used in the present invention may comprise 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 IgG-binding domains, but preferably have 4 or less.

如果抗原仅包含一类spa结构域(例如,仅是Spa(A)或Spa(D)结构域),其可包含多于一个拷贝的该结构域,例如一条多肽链中包含多个SpA(D)结构域。If the antigen contains only one type of spa domain (e.g., only Spa(A) or Spa(D) domains), it may contain more than one copy of this domain, e.g., multiple SpA(D) domains in one polypeptide chain. ) domain.

Such mutations should not render the antigen incapable of eliciting antibodies that recognize SEQ ID NO: 36, but may result in the antigen not binding IgG and/or other human proteins (e.g., human blood proteins).

在某些方面,spa抗原包含以下取代:(a)SpA结构域A、B、C、D和/或E的IgG Fc结合亚域中的一个或多个氨基酸取代,从而破坏和/或降低与IgG Fc的结合,和(b)SpA结构域A、B、C、D和/或E的VH3结合亚域中的一个或多个氨基酸取代,从而破坏和/或降低与VH3的结合。在某些实施方式中,变体SpA包含最少或最多1、2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9、10或更多个变体SpA结构域D肽。In certain aspects, the spa antigen comprises the following substitutions: (a) one or more amino acid substitutions in the IgG Fc-binding subdomains of SpA domains A, B, C, D and/or E, thereby disrupting and/or reducing interaction with IgG Fc binding, and (b) one or more amino acid substitutions in the VH3 binding subdomains of SpA domains A, B, C, D and/or E, thereby disrupting and/or reducing binding to VH3 combined. In certain embodiments, the variant SpA comprises a minimum or a maximum of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or more variant SpA domain D peptides.

杂交多肽hybrid peptide

本发明所用的抗原可作为分离的各多肽存在于组合物中。然而,如果使用多于一种抗原,它们不一定作为分离的多肽存在。取而代之的是,至少两种(如2、3、4、5或更多种)抗原反而可表达成一条多肽链(‘杂交’多肽)。杂交多肽提供两个主要优点:首先,本身不稳定或者表达较差的多肽可通过加入能克服该问题的合适杂交伴侣而得到改善;其次,商业生产得以简化,因为只需利用一次表达和纯化以生产可用作抗原的两种多肽。The antigens used in the present invention may be present in the composition as separate individual polypeptides. However, if more than one antigen is used, they do not necessarily exist as isolated polypeptides. Instead, at least two (eg 2, 3, 4, 5 or more) antigens may instead be expressed as one polypeptide chain ('hybrid' polypeptide). Hybrid peptides offer two major advantages: first, peptides that are inherently unstable or poorly expressed can be improved by adding suitable hybrid partners that overcome this problem; second, commercial production is simplified because only one expression and purification Two polypeptides are produced that can be used as antigens.

杂交多肽可包含来自第一抗原组的两种或更多种多肽序列。杂交多肽可包含来自第一抗原组的一种或多种多肽序列,和来自第二抗原组的一种或多种多肽序列。此外,杂交多肽可包含来自上述各抗原的两种或更多种多肽序列,或在该序列在菌株间有部分变化的情况下,可包含相同抗原的两种或更多种变体。A hybrid polypeptide may comprise two or more polypeptide sequences from a first group of antigens. A hybrid polypeptide may comprise one or more polypeptide sequences from a first antigenic group, and one or more polypeptide sequences from a second antigenic group. Furthermore, hybrid polypeptides may comprise two or more polypeptide sequences from each of the above antigens, or, where the sequences partially vary between strains, may comprise two or more variants of the same antigen.

可使用由两种、三种、四种、五种、六种、七种、八种、九种或十种抗原的氨基酸序列组成的杂交体。具体说,优选由两种、三种、四种或五种抗原,如两种或三种抗原的氨基酸序列组成的杂交体。Hybrids consisting of the amino acid sequences of two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine or ten antigens may be used. In particular, hybrids consisting of two, three, four or five antigens, such as amino acid sequences of two or three antigens, are preferred.

不同的杂交多肽可以混合在一种制剂中。杂交体可与选自第一、第二或第三抗原组的非杂交抗原组合。在此类组合中,抗原可存在于多于一种的杂交多肽中和/或作为非杂交多肽存在。然而,抗原优选作为杂交体或作为非杂交体存在,但不同时存在两种形式。Different hybrid polypeptides can be mixed in one formulation. Hybrids may be combined with non-hybrid antigens selected from the first, second or third antigen group. In such combinations, the antigens may be present in more than one hybrid polypeptide and/or as non-hybrid polypeptides. However, the antigen is preferably present as a hybrid or as a non-hybrid, but not both.

杂交多肽也可与上述偶联物或非金黄色葡萄球菌抗原组合。Hybrid polypeptides may also be combined with the aforementioned conjugates or non-S. aureus antigens.

杂交多肽可以表示为通式NH2-A-{-X-L-}n-B-COOH,其中:X是金黄色葡萄球菌抗原的氨基酸序列,如上所述;L是任选接头的氨基酸序列;A是任选的N末端氨基酸序列;B是任选的C末端氨基酸序列;n是2或更大的整数(如2、3、4、5、6等)。n通常是2或3。The hybrid polypeptide can be represented by the general formula NH 2 -A-{-XL-} n -B-COOH, wherein: X is the amino acid sequence of Staphylococcus aureus antigen, as described above; L is the amino acid sequence of an optional linker; A is an optional N-terminal amino acid sequence; B is an optional C-terminal amino acid sequence; n is an integer of 2 or more (such as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.). n is usually 2 or 3.

如果在其野生型形式中-X-部分具有前导肽序列,则在杂交蛋白中可包含或者略去该序列。在一些实施方式中,前导肽可缺失,除非-X-部分位于杂交蛋白的N-末端,即保留X1的前导肽,但略去X2...Xn的前导肽。这相当于删除所有前导肽并使用X1的前导肽作为-A-部分。If the -X- portion has a leader peptide sequence in its wild-type form, this sequence can be included or omitted in the hybrid protein. In some embodiments, the leader peptide can be deleted unless the -X- moiety is located at the N-terminus of the hybrid protein, ie the leader peptide of X1 is retained, but the leader peptides of X2 ... Xn are omitted. This is equivalent to deleting all leader peptides and using the leader peptide of X1 as the -A- moiety.

对于{-X-L-}的各个n的情况下,接头氨基酸序列-L-可存在或不存在。例如,当n=2时,杂交体可以是NH2-X1-L1-X2-L2-COOH、NH2-X1-X2-COOH、NH2-X1-L1-X2-COOH、NH2-X1-X2-L2-COOH等。接头氨基酸序列-L-一般较短(如20个或更少的氨基酸,即20、19、18、17、16、15、14、13、12、11、10、9、8、7、6、5、4、3、2、1)。例子包括有利于克隆的短肽序列,聚-甘氨酸接头(即包含Glyn,其中n=2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9、10或更高),和组氨酸标签(即Hisn,其中n=3、4、5、6、7、8、9、10或更高)。本领域技术人员了解其它合适的接头氨基酸序列。有用的接头是GSGGGG(SEQID NO:171)或GSGSGGGG(SEQ ID NO:172),其中Gly-Ser二肽由BamHI限制性位点形成(或两个它们形成SEQ ID NO:230四肽),因而有助于克隆和操作,而(Gly)4四肽(SEQ ID NO:227)是典型的多聚-甘氨酸接头。其它合适的接头是ASGGGS(SEQ ID NO:173,例如SEQ ID NO:174编码)或Leu-Glu二肽,尤其是对于用作最后的LnFor each case of n of {-XL-}, the linker amino acid sequence -L- may or may not be present. For example, when n=2, the hybrid can be NH 2 -X 1 -L 1 -X 2 -L 2 -COOH, NH 2 -X 1 -X 2 -COOH, NH 2 -X 1 -L 1 -X 2 -COOH, NH 2 -X 1 -X 2 -L 2 -COOH, etc. The linker amino acid sequence -L- is generally shorter (e.g. 20 or fewer amino acids, i.e. 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1).

Other suitable linker amino acid sequences are known to those skilled in the art. Useful linkers are GSGGGG (SEQ ID NO: 171) or GSGSGGGG (SEQ ID NO: 172), where the Gly-Ser dipeptide is formed by the BamHI restriction site (or both of them form the SEQ ID NO: 230 tetrapeptide), thus Facilitating cloning and manipulation, and (Gly) 4 tetrapeptide (SEQ ID NO: 227) is a typical poly-glycine linker. Other suitable linkers are ASGGGS (SEQ ID NO: 173, eg encoded by SEQ ID NO: 174) or the Leu-Glu dipeptide, especially for use as the final Ln .

Other suitable N-terminal amino acid sequences are known to those skilled in the art. If X lacks its own N-terminal methionine, -A- is preferably an oligopeptide providing an N-terminal methionine (e.g., with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 amino acids), such as Met-Ala-Ser or a single Met residue.

Genetically encoded amino acids are generally divided into four classes: (1) acidic, i.e., aspartic acid, glutamic acid; (2) basic, i.e., lysine, arginine, histidine; (3) non-acidic Polar, i.e., alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan; and (4) uncharged polar amino acids , namely, glycine, asparagine, glutamine, cysteine, serine, threonine, tyrosine. Together, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine are sometimes referred to as aromatic amino acids. Substitutions of individual amino acids within these families generally do not have a significant effect on biological activity. With respect to the SEQ ID NO sequence, the polypeptide may also comprise one or more (such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, etc.) single amino acid deletions. Relative to the SEQ ID NO sequence, the polypeptide may also comprise one or more (such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, etc.) insertions (such as 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acids).

类似地,本发明所用多肽可包含某氨基酸序列,该序列:Similarly, polypeptides used in the invention may comprise an amino acid sequence that:

(a)与序列表公开的某一序列相同(即100%相同);(a) Identical to a certain sequence disclosed in the sequence listing (i.e. 100% identical);

(b)与序列表公开的某一序列具有序列相同性(如80%、85%、90%、91%、92%、93%、94%、95%、96%、97%、98%、99%、99.5%或更高);(b) having sequence identity (such as 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, 99.5% or higher);

(c)与(a)或(b)的序列相比,含有1、2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9或10个(或更多个)单氨基酸改变(缺失、插入、取代),这些改变可以位于分开的位置或可以是连续的;和(c) Contains 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 (or more) single amino acid changes (deletions, insertions) compared to the sequence of (a) or (b) , substitution), these alterations may be at separate positions or may be consecutive; and

(d)用逐对比对算法与序列表中的特定序列比对时,从N-末端向C-末端的x个氨基酸的每个移动窗口(使得比对延伸到p(p>x)个氨基酸时,存在p-x+1个此类窗口)具有至少x·y个相同的比对氨基酸,其中:x选自20、25、30、35、40、45、50、60、70、80、90、100、150、200;y选自0.50、0.60、0.70、0.75、0.80、0.85、0.90、0.91、0.92、0.93、0.94、0.95、0.96、0.97、0.98、0.99;如果x·y不是整数,则四舍五入至最接近的整数。优选的逐对比对算法是Needleman-Wunsch全局比对算法[78],使用默认参数(如空位开放罚分=10.0,空位延伸罚分=0.5,使用EBLOSUM62评分矩阵)。用EMBOSS软件包中的needle工具能方便地实施这种算法[79]。(d) Each moving window of x amino acids from the N-terminus to the C-terminus (such that the alignment extends to p (p > x) amino acids when aligned with a specific sequence in the sequence listing using the pairwise alignment algorithm , there are p-x+1 such windows) with at least x.y identical aligned amino acids, wherein: x is selected from 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 150, 200; y is selected from 0.50, 0.60, 0.70, 0.75, 0.80, 0.85, 0.90, 0.91, 0.92, 0.93, 0.94, 0.95, 0.96, 0.97, 0.98, 0.99; if x y is not an integer, are rounded to the nearest whole number. A preferred pairwise alignment algorithm is the Needleman-Wunsch global alignment algorithm [78], using default parameters (eg, gap opening penalty = 10.0, gap extension penalty = 0.5, using the EBLOSUM62 scoring matrix). This algorithm can be easily implemented with the needle tool in the EMBOSS package [79].

使用杂交多肽时,杂交体内的各抗原(即各-X-部分)可来自一种或多种菌株。例如,如果n=2,X2可来自与X1相同的菌株,或来自不同菌株。如果n=3,该菌株可以是(i)X1=X2=X3(ii)X1=X2≠X3(iii)X1≠X2=X3(iv)X1≠X2≠X3或(v)X1=X3≠X2等。When hybrid polypeptides are used, each antigen (ie, each -X- moiety) within the hybrid can be from one or more strains. For example, if n=2, X2 can be from the same strain as X1 , or from a different strain. If n=3, the strain can be (i) X 1 =X 2 =X 3 (ii) X 1 =X 2 ≠X 3 (iii)X 1 ≠X 2 =X 3 (iv)X 1 ≠X 2 ≠X 3 or (v)X 1 =X 3 ≠X 2 and so on.

在(c)组内,缺失或取代可发生在N末端和/或C末端,或者可以在两末端之间。因此,截短是缺失的一个例子。截短可包括在N末端和/或C末端缺失最多40个(或更多)氨基酸。N-末端截短可除去前导肽,例如有助于在异源宿主中重组表达。C-末端截短可除去锚定序列,例如有助于在异源宿主中重组表达。Within group (c), deletions or substitutions may occur at the N-terminus and/or C-terminus, or may be in between. Thus, truncation is an example of deletion. Truncations may include deletions of up to 40 (or more) amino acids at the N-terminus and/or C-terminus. N-terminal truncation removes the leader peptide, for example to facilitate recombinant expression in a heterologous host. C-terminal truncation removes the anchor sequence, eg to facilitate recombinant expression in a heterologous host.

当抗原包含与序列表的完整金黄色葡萄球菌序列不同的序列时(例如,当它包含序列相同性<100%的序列,或包含其片段时),在各情况下,该抗原通常优选能引发识别完整的各金黄色葡萄球菌序列的抗体。When an antigen comprises a sequence different from the complete S. aureus sequence of the Sequence Listing (e.g. when it comprises a sequence with <100% sequence identity, or a fragment thereof), it is generally preferred in each case that the antigen elicits Antibodies that recognize the complete sequence of each S. aureus.

因此,组合物可以是药学上可接受的。除抗原外,它们通常还包含其它组分,例如它们一般包含一种或多种药物载体和/或赋形剂。对这类组分的充分讨论参见参考文献273。Accordingly, the composition may be pharmaceutically acceptable. In addition to the antigen, they usually comprise other components, eg they generally comprise one or more pharmaceutical carriers and/or excipients. A full discussion of such components is found in ref. 273.

组合物通常以水性形式给予哺乳动物。然而在给药前,该组合物可以是非水性形式。例如,虽然一些疫苗制备成水性形式,然后以水性形式填充、分销和给药,但其他疫苗在制备过程中冻干,在使用时重建成水性形式。因此,本发明组合物可以是干燥制剂,例如冻干制剂。Compositions are typically administered to mammals in aqueous form. Prior to administration, however, the composition may be in non-aqueous form. For example, while some vaccines are prepared in an aqueous form, which is then filled, distributed, and administered, others are lyophilized during manufacture and reconstituted in an aqueous form at the point of use. Accordingly, compositions of the invention may be dry formulations, such as lyophilized formulations.

该组合物可含有防腐剂,如硫柳汞或2-苯氧基乙醇。然而,疫苗优选应基本不含(即,小于5μg/ml)含汞物质,如不含硫柳汞。更优选无汞的疫苗。特别优选不含防腐剂的疫苗。The composition may contain a preservative such as thimerosal or 2-phenoxyethanol. However, the vaccine should preferably be substantially free (ie, less than 5 μg/ml) of mercury-containing substances, such as free of thimerosal. Mercury-free vaccines are more preferred.

Buffers generally include: phosphate buffers; Tris buffers; borate buffers; succinate buffers; histidine buffers (especially aluminum hydroxide-containing adjuvants); or citrate buffers. The buffer is typically included at a concentration of 5-20 mM.

组合物的pH通常为5.0-8.1,更常见为6.0-8.0,例如6.5-7.5,或者7.0-7.8。The pH of the composition is usually 5.0-8.1, more usually 6.0-8.0, eg 6.5-7.5, or 7.0-7.8.

该组合物优选无菌。该组合物优选无热原,如每剂量含有<1EU(内毒素单位,标准量度),优选每剂量<0.1EU。该组合物优选不含谷蛋白。The composition is preferably sterile. The composition is preferably pyrogen-free, eg containing <1 EU (endotoxin unit, a standard measure) per dose, preferably <0.1 EU per dose. The composition is preferably gluten-free.

该组合物可含有一次免疫的物质,或者可含有多次免疫的物质(即‘多剂量’试剂盒)。多剂量配置优选含有防腐剂。作为多剂量组合物中包含防腐剂的替代方案(或除此之外),该组合物可包含在装有用于取出物质的无菌接头的容器中。The composition may contain material for one immunization, or may contain material for multiple immunizations (ie a 'multi-dose' kit). Multiple dose formulations preferably contain a preservative. As an alternative (or in addition) to including a preservative in multidose compositions, the compositions may be contained in containers fitted with sterile adapters for the removal of materials.

人疫苗的给药剂量体积一般为约0.5ml,但可将一半剂量(即,约0.25ml)给予儿童。Human vaccines are typically administered in a dose volume of about 0.5 ml, although half the dose (ie, about 0.25 ml) can be given to children.

本发明的免疫原性组合物也可包含一种或多种免疫调节剂。优选地,一种或多种免疫调节剂包括一种或多种佐剂。佐剂可包括TH1佐剂和/或TH2佐剂,详述见下。The immunogenic compositions of the invention may also contain one or more immunomodulators.

Similarly, the invention provides immunogenic compositions comprising the staO11 antigen in combination with an adjuvant (eg, aluminum hydroxide adjuvant). These compositions preferably contain a buffer, such as a histidine buffer.

可以用于本发明组合物的佐剂包括但不限于:Adjuvants that can be used in the compositions of the present invention include, but are not limited to:

A.含矿物质的组合物A. Mineral-containing compositions

适合用作本发明佐剂的含矿物质的组合物包括矿物盐,例如铝盐和钙盐(或其混合物)。钙盐包括磷酸钙(如参考文献80公开的“CAP”颗粒)。铝盐包括氢氧化物、磷酸盐、硫酸盐等,所述盐可采用任何合适形式(例如凝胶、结晶、非晶态形式等)。优选吸附于这些盐(例如,所有抗原可吸附)。也可将含有矿物质的组合物制成金属盐的颗粒[81]。Mineral-containing compositions suitable for use as adjuvants in the present invention include mineral salts such as aluminum and calcium salts (or mixtures thereof). Calcium salts include calcium phosphate ("CAP" particles as disclosed in reference 80). Aluminum salts include hydroxides, phosphates, sulfates, etc., which salts may take any suitable form (eg, gel, crystalline, amorphous form, etc.). Adsorption to these salts is preferred (eg, all antigens can be adsorbed). Compositions containing minerals can also be prepared as particles of metal salts [81].

可利用称为氢氧化铝和磷酸铝的佐剂。这些名称是常规名称,但仅是为方便使用,因为无一精确描述了存在的实际化学化合物(例如,参见参考文献82的第9章)。本发明可利用通常用作佐剂的任何“氢氧化物”或“磷酸盐”佐剂。称为″氢氧化铝″的佐剂一般是羟基氧化铝盐(通常至少部分为晶体)。称为″磷酸铝″的佐剂一般是羟基磷酸铝,也常常含有少量硫酸盐(即,羟基磷酸硫酸铝)。可通过沉淀获得这些佐剂,沉淀期间的反应条件和浓度影响磷酸根取代所述盐中羟基的程度。Adjuvants known as aluminum hydroxide and aluminum phosphate are available. These names are conventional, but are used for convenience only, as none accurately describe the actual chemical compound present (see, eg, Chapter 9 of ref. 82). The present invention may utilize any "hydroxide" or "phosphate" adjuvant commonly used as adjuvants. Adjuvants known as "aluminum hydroxide" are generally aluminum oxyhydroxide salts (usually at least partially crystalline). Adjuvants known as "aluminum phosphates" are generally aluminum hydroxyphosphates, often also containing small amounts of sulfate (ie, aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate). These adjuvants can be obtained by precipitation, during which the reaction conditions and concentrations affect the extent to which phosphate replaces the hydroxyl groups in the salt.

氢氧化铝佐剂通常是纤维形态(例如,电子透射显微照片所见的)。氢氧化铝佐剂的pI通常约11,即在生理pH下佐剂本身具有表面正电荷。据报道,pH 7.4时,氢氧化铝佐剂的吸附能力在每mg Al+++ 1.8-2.6mg蛋白质之间。Aluminum hydroxide adjuvants are usually in the form of fibers (eg, as seen in transmission electron micrographs). Aluminum hydroxide adjuvants typically have a pi of about 11, ie the adjuvant itself has a positive surface charge at physiological pH. The adsorption capacity of aluminum hydroxide adjuvants at pH 7.4 has been reported to be between 1.8–2.6 mg protein per mg Al +++ .

磷酸铝佐剂的PO4/Al摩尔比通常为0.3-1.2,优选0.8-1.2,更优选0.95±0.1。磷酸铝通常是无定形的,尤其是羟基磷酸盐。典型的佐剂是PO4/Al摩尔比为0.84-0.92的无定形羟基磷酸铝,包含0.6mg Al3+/ml。磷酸铝通常是颗粒(如在透射电子显微照片上观察到的板状形态)。抗原吸附后颗粒直径一般是0.5-20μm(如约5-10μm)。据报道,pH 7.4时磷酸铝佐剂的吸附容量为0.7-1.5毫克蛋白质/毫克Al+++The PO 4 /Al molar ratio of the aluminum phosphate adjuvant is usually 0.3-1.2, preferably 0.8-1.2, more preferably 0.95±0.1. Aluminum phosphates are generally amorphous, especially hydroxyphosphates. A typical adjuvant is amorphous aluminum hydroxyphosphate with a PO 4 /Al molar ratio of 0.84-0.92, containing 0.6 mg Al 3+ /ml. Aluminum phosphate is usually particulate (plate-like morphology as observed on transmission electron micrographs). The particle diameter after antigen adsorption is generally 0.5-20 μm (eg, about 5-10 μm). The adsorption capacity of aluminum phosphate adjuvants at pH 7.4 has been reported to be 0.7-1.5 mg protein/mg Al +++ .

磷酸铝的零点电荷(PZC)与磷酸根对羟基的取代程度逆相关,这种取代程度可能取决于通过沉淀制备盐所用的反应条件和反应物浓度。也通过改变溶液中游离磷酸根离子的浓度(更多磷酸根=更多酸性PZC)或加入缓冲剂如组氨酸缓冲剂(使PZC碱性更强)改变PZC。本发明所用的磷酸铝的PZC通常为4.0-7.0,更优选5.0-6.5,例如约5.7。The point zero charge (PZC) of aluminum phosphate is inversely related to the degree of substitution of phosphate for hydroxyl groups, which may depend on the reaction conditions and reactant concentrations used to prepare the salt by precipitation. PZC is also altered by changing the concentration of free phosphate ions in solution (more phosphate = more acidic PZC) or adding a buffer such as histidine buffer (making PZC more basic). The aluminum phosphate used in the present invention typically has a PZC of 4.0-7.0, more preferably 5.0-6.5, eg about 5.7.

如下所示,优选将金黄色葡萄球菌抗原(除了IsdA、Sta019和Sta073)吸附于氢氧化铝佐剂,尤其是在多蛋白质组合中(其中所有抗原可吸附)。此类含佐剂组合物中包含组氨酸缓冲剂是有用的。As shown below, adsorption of S. aureus antigens (except IsdA, Sta019 and Sta073) to aluminum hydroxide adjuvant is preferred, especially in multi-protein combinations (where all antigens are adsorbable). It is useful to include a histidine buffer in such adjuvanted compositions.

用于制备本发明组合物的铝盐悬浮液可以,但不一定含有缓冲剂(如磷酸盐或组氨酸或Tris缓冲液)。该悬浮液优选无菌且无热原。悬浮液可含有游离的水合磷酸根离子,如存在浓度为1.0-20mM,优选5-15mM,更优选约10mM。该悬浮液也可含有氯化钠。The aluminum salt suspension used to prepare the compositions of the invention may, but need not, contain a buffer (such as phosphate or histidine or Tris buffer). The suspension is preferably sterile and pyrogen-free. The suspension may contain free hydrated phosphate ions, eg, present at a concentration of 1.0-20 mM, preferably 5-15 mM, more preferably about 10 mM. The suspension may also contain sodium chloride.

本发明可使用氢氧化铝和磷酸铝的混合物。在这种情况下,磷酸铝比氢氧化铝多,例如重量比为至少2∶1,例如≥5∶1、≥6∶1、≥7∶1、≥8∶1、≥9∶1等。Mixtures of aluminum hydroxide and aluminum phosphate can be used in the present invention. In this case there is more aluminum phosphate than aluminum hydroxide, eg in a weight ratio of at least 2:1, eg >5:1, >6:1, >7:1, >8:1, >9:1 etc.

给予患者的组合物中Al+++的浓度优选小于10mg/ml,例如≤5mg/ml、≤4mg/ml、≤3mg/ml、≤2mg/ml、≤1mg/ml等。优选范围是0.3-1mg/ml。最大值优选0.85mg/剂。The concentration of Al +++ in the composition administered to the patient is preferably less than 10 mg/ml, such as ≤5 mg/ml, ≤4 mg/ml, ≤3 mg/ml, ≤2 mg/ml, ≤1 mg/ml, etc. A preferred range is 0.3-1 mg/ml. The maximum value is preferably 0.85 mg/dose.

B.油乳液B. Oil emulsion

适合用作本发明佐剂的油乳液组合物包含角鲨烯-水乳剂,如MF59[参考文献82第10章;也见参考文献83](5%角鲨烯、0.5%吐温80和0.5%司盘85,用微流化床配制成亚微米颗粒)。也可以使用完全弗氏佐剂(CFA)和不完全弗氏佐剂(IFA)。Oil emulsion compositions suitable for use as adjuvants in the present invention comprise squalene-water emulsions such as MF59 [Chapter 10 of ref. 82; see also ref. 83] (5% squalene, 0.5% Tween 80 and 0.5 % Span 85, formulated into submicron particles using a microfluidizer). Complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) and incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) can also be used.

已知各种水包油乳液,它们通常包含至少一种油和至少一种表面活性剂,所述油和表面活性剂是可生物降解(可代谢)和生物相容的。乳液中油滴的直径通常小于5μm,最好具有亚微米直径,通过微流化床实现这种小尺寸以提供稳定乳液。优选尺寸小于220nm的液滴,因为其可进行过滤灭菌。Various oil-in-water emulsions are known, which generally comprise at least one oil and at least one surfactant which are biodegradable (metabolizable) and biocompatible. The diameter of the oil droplets in the emulsion is usually less than 5 μm, preferably with a submicron diameter, and this small size is achieved by a microfluidized bed to provide a stable emulsion. Droplets with a size of less than 220 nm are preferred because they can be filter sterilized.

所述乳液可以包含如动物(如鱼)或植物来源的油。植物油的来源包括坚果、种籽和谷物。最常用的花生油、大豆油、椰油和橄榄油是坚果油的代表例子。可以使用例如获自霍霍巴豆的霍霍巴油。种籽油包括红花油、棉籽油、葵花籽油、芝麻籽油等。在谷物油中,最常用的是玉米油,但也可以使用其它谷类的油,如小麦、燕麦、黑麦、稻、画眉草(teff)、黑小麦(triticale)等。可从坚果和种籽油开始,通过水解、分离和酯化合适物质制备甘油和1,2-丙二醇的6-10碳脂肪酸酯(不是种籽油中天然产生的)。来自哺乳动物乳汁的脂肪和油类是可代谢的,因此可以用于实施本发明。由动物来源获得纯油必需的分离、纯化、皂化和其它方法的过程是本领域熟知的。大多数鱼类含有容易回收的可代谢油。例如,鳕鱼肝油、鲨鱼肝油和如鲸蜡的鲸油是可以用于本发明的几种鱼油的例子。通过生化途径用5-碳异戊二烯单位合成许多支链油,它们总称为萜类。鲨鱼肝油含有称为角鲨烯的支链不饱和萜类化合物,2,6,10,15,19,23-六甲基-2,6,10,14,18,22-二十四碳六烯,本文特别优选该萜类化合物。角鲨烯的饱和类似物角鲨烷也是优选的油。鱼油,包括鲨烯和鲨烷,易于从商业来源获得,或可以通过本领域已知的方法获得。其它优选油是生育酚(见下)。可以使用油的混合物。The emulsion may comprise, for example, oils of animal (eg fish) or vegetable origin. Sources of vegetable oils include nuts, seeds and grains. The most commonly used peanut oil, soybean oil, coconut oil and olive oil are representative examples of nut oils. Jojoba oil obtained, for example, from jojoba beans can be used. Seed oils include safflower oil, cottonseed oil, sunflower oil, sesame seed oil, and others. Of the grain oils, corn oil is most commonly used, but oils from other cereals such as wheat, oats, rye, rice, teff, triticale, etc. may also be used. 6-10 carbon fatty acid esters of glycerol and 1,2-propanediol (not naturally occurring in seed oils) can be prepared starting from nut and seed oils by hydrolysis, isolation and esterification of the appropriate species. Fats and oils from mammalian milk are metabolizable and thus can be used in the practice of the present invention. The processes of isolation, purification, saponification and other methods necessary to obtain pure oils from animal sources are well known in the art. Most fish contain metabolizable oils that are easily recovered. For example, cod liver oil, shark liver oil, and whale oils such as spermaceti are examples of several fish oils that may be used in the present invention. A number of branched-chain oils are synthesized by biochemical pathways using 5-carbon isoprene units, which are collectively referred to as terpenes. Shark liver oil contains branched unsaturated terpenoids called squalene, 2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyl-2,6,10,14,18,22-tetracosahexa Alkenes, the terpenoids are particularly preferred herein. Squalane, the saturated analog of squalene, is also a preferred oil.

在一些实施方式中,可在递送时临时混合乳液与抗原,因此所述佐剂和抗原可单独地保存在包装或分销的疫苗中,以便在使用时配制成最终制剂。在其它实施方式中,在生产过程中混合乳液与抗原,因此所述组合物以液体佐剂形式包装。所述抗原通常是水性形式,以便最终通过混合两种液体制备疫苗。所述两种液体的混合体积比可变(例如5∶1-1∶5),但通常约为1∶1。如果上述对具体乳液的说明给出了组分浓度,这些浓度通常用于非稀释组合物,因此与抗原溶液混合后浓度降低。In some embodiments, the emulsion and antigen can be mixed extemporaneously at the time of delivery, so that the adjuvant and antigen can be kept separately in the packaged or distributed vaccine to be formulated into the final formulation at the time of use. In other embodiments, the emulsion is mixed with the antigen during manufacture, so the composition is packaged in a liquid adjuvant. The antigen is usually in aqueous form so that the vaccine is finally prepared by mixing the two liquids. The mixed volume ratio of the two liquids can vary (eg, 5:1-1:5), but is usually about 1:1. Where component concentrations are given in the above description for a particular emulsion, these concentrations are generally for non-diluted compositions and thus reduced in concentration upon admixture with the antigen solution.

如果组合物包含生育酚,可采用α、β、γ、δ、ε或ξ生育酚中的任何一种,但优选α-生育酚。生育酚可取多种形式,例如不同的盐和/或异构体。盐包括有机盐,例如琥珀酸盐、乙酸盐、烟酸盐等。可同时采用D-α-生育酚和DL-α-生育酚。用于老年患者(如年龄大于60岁或更大的患者)的疫苗中宜包含生育酚,因为据报道维生素E在此患者群体中对免疫应答有正面作用[99]。它们也具有抗氧化特性,这种特性有助于稳定该乳液[100]。优选的α-生育酚是DL-α-生育酚,此种生育酚的优选盐是琥珀酸盐。发现琥珀酸盐在体内能与TNF相关配体协作。If the composition comprises tocopherol, any of alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon or zeta tocopherol may be used, but alpha-tocopherol is preferred. Tocopherol can take various forms, such as different salts and/or isomers. Salts include organic salts such as succinate, acetate, nicotinate, and the like. Both D-α-tocopherol and DL-α-tocopherol can be used simultaneously. Inclusion of tocopherol in vaccines used in elderly patients (eg, those aged 60 years or older) is desirable because vitamin E has been reported to have a positive effect on the immune response in this patient population [99]. They also have antioxidant properties that help stabilize the emulsion [100]. The preferred alpha-tocopherol is DL-alpha-tocopherol and the preferred salt of this tocopherol is succinate. Succinate was found to cooperate with TNF-related ligands in vivo.

用作免疫刺激剂的其它物质可参见参考文献82的第7章。See Chapter 7 of ref. 82 for other substances useful as immunostimulants.

特别优选使用氢氧化铝和/或磷酸铝佐剂,抗原通常吸附于这些盐。磷酸钙是另一种优选佐剂。其它优选的佐剂组合包括Th1和Th2佐剂的组合,如CpG和明矾或瑞喹莫德(resquimod)和明矾。可以使用磷酸铝和3dMPL的组合。Particular preference is given to using aluminum hydroxide and/or aluminum phosphate adjuvants, to which the antigen is usually adsorbed. Calcium phosphate is another preferred adjuvant. Other preferred adjuvant combinations include combinations of Th1 and Th2 adjuvants, such as CpG and alum or resquimod and alum. A combination of aluminum phosphate and 3dMPL can be used.

本发明组合物可引起细胞介导的免疫应答以及体液免疫应答。此种免疫应答优选诱导长期(如中和性)抗体和细胞介导的免疫,以便在接触肺炎球菌时迅速作出反应。The compositions of the invention can elicit a cell-mediated immune response as well as a humoral immune response. Such an immune response preferably induces long-lasting (eg, neutralizing) antibodies and cell-mediated immunity to respond rapidly upon exposure to pneumococci.

通常认为两类T细胞,CD4和CD8细胞是启动和/或增强细胞介导免疫和体液免疫所必需的。CD8 T细胞可表达CD8共同受体,通常称为细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTL)。CD8 T细胞能识别MHC I型分子上展示的抗原或与之相互作用。Two classes of T cells, CD4 and CD8 cells, are generally believed to be necessary for initiating and/or enhancing cell-mediated and humoral immunity. CD8 T cells express the CD8 co-receptor and are commonly referred to as cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). CD8 T cells can recognize or interact with antigens displayed on MHC class I molecules.

CD4 T细胞可表达CD4共受体,通常称为T辅助细胞。CD4 T细胞能够识别结合于MHC II型分子的抗原性肽。与MHC II型分子相互作用后,CD4细胞可分泌诸如细胞因子等因子。这些分泌的细胞因子可激活B细胞、细胞毒性T细胞、巨噬细胞和参与免疫应答的其它细胞。辅助T细胞或CD4+细胞可进一步分成功能不同的两个亚组:即,细胞因子和效应功能不同的TH1表型和TH2表型。CD4 T cells express the CD4 co-receptor and are commonly referred to as T helper cells. CD4 T cells are able to recognize antigenic peptides bound to MHC class II molecules. After interacting with MHC class II molecules, CD4 cells can secrete factors such as cytokines. These secreted cytokines activate B cells, cytotoxic T cells, macrophages and other cells involved in the immune response. Helper T cells or CD4+ cells can be further divided into two functionally distinct subgroups: namely, TH1 phenotype and TH2 phenotype with distinct cytokine and effector functions.

活化的TH1细胞能增强细胞免疫(包括抗原特异性CTL产量增加),因而对响应胞内感染尤其有价值。激活的TH1细胞可分泌IL-2、IFN-γ和TNF-β中的一种或多种。TH1免疫应答可通过激活巨噬细胞、NK(天然杀伤细胞)细胞和CD8细胞毒性T细胞(CTL)导致局部炎性反应。通过用IL-12刺激B和T细胞的生长,TH1免疫应答也可用于放大免疫应答。TH1刺激的B细胞可分泌IgG2a。Activated TH1 cells enhance cellular immunity (including increased production of antigen-specific CTLs) and are therefore particularly valuable in response to intracellular infection. Activated TH1 cells can secrete one or more of IL-2, IFN-γ and TNF-β. A TH1 immune response can lead to a local inflammatory response by activating macrophages, NK (natural killer) cells, and CD8 cytotoxic T cells (CTL). TH1 immune responses can also be used to amplify the immune response by stimulating the growth of B and T cells with IL-12. B cells stimulated by TH1 can secrete IgG2a.

活化的TH2细胞提高抗体产量,因此对响应胞外感染有价值。活化的TH2细胞可分泌IL-4、IL-5、IL-6和IL-10中的一种或多种。TH2免疫应答可导致产生IgG1、IgE、IgA和用于未来保护的记忆B细胞。Activated TH2 cells increase antibody production and are therefore valuable in response to extracellular infection. Activated TH2 cells can secrete one or more of IL-4, IL-5, IL-6 and IL-10. A TH2 immune response can lead to the production of IgG1, IgE, IgA and memory B cells for future protection.

增强的免疫应答可包括增强的TH1免疫应答和TH2免疫应答中的一种或多种。An enhanced immune response may include one or more of an enhanced TH1 immune response and a TH2 immune response.

TH1免疫应答可包括以下一种或多种现象:CTL增加,与TH1免疫应答相关的一种或多种细胞因子(如IL-2、IFNγ和TNF-β)增加,活化巨噬细胞增加,NK活性增加,或者IgG2a产量增加。增强的TH1免疫应答优选包括IgG2a产量增加。TH1 immune response may include one or more of the following phenomena: increased CTL, increased one or more cytokines (such as IL-2, IFNγ, and TNF-β) associated with TH1 immune response, increased activated macrophages, NK Increased activity, or increased IgG2a production. The enhanced TH1 immune response preferably includes increased production of IgG2a.

可使用TH1佐剂引发TH1免疫应答。相对于不用佐剂的抗原免疫,TH1佐剂通常引起IgG2a生成水平增加。适用于本发明的TH1佐剂可包括例如,皂苷制剂、病毒体和病毒样颗粒、肠细菌脂多糖(LPS)的无毒衍生物、免疫刺激性寡核苷酸。免疫刺激性寡核苷酸,如含有CpG基序的寡核苷酸是本发明所用的优选TH1佐剂。A TH1 immune response can be elicited using a TH1 adjuvant. TH1 adjuvant generally elicited increased levels of IgG2a production relative to antigen immunization without adjuvant. TH1 adjuvants suitable for use in the present invention may include, for example, saponin preparations, virosomes and virus-like particles, non-toxic derivatives of enterobacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), immunostimulatory oligonucleotides. Immunostimulatory oligonucleotides, such as oligonucleotides containing CpG motifs, are preferred TH1 adjuvants for use in the present invention.

TH2免疫应答可包括以下一种或多种:与TH2免疫应答相关的一种或多种细胞因子(如IL-4、IL-5、IL-6和IL-10)增加,或者IgG1、IgE、IgA和记忆B细胞生成增加。增强的TH2免疫应答优选包括IgG1生成增加。A TH2 immune response may include one or more of the following: an increase in one or more cytokines (such as IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and IL-10) associated with a TH2 immune response, or an increase in IgG1, IgE, IgA and memory B cell production is increased. The enhanced TH2 immune response preferably includes increased IgG1 production.

可使用TH2佐剂引发TH2免疫应答。相对于不用佐剂的抗原免疫,TH2佐剂通常引起IgG1生成水平增加。适用于本发明的TH2佐剂包括例如,含矿物质组合物、油乳液和ADP-核糖基化毒素及其脱毒衍生物。含矿物质组合物如铝盐是本发明使用的优选TH2佐剂。TH2 immune responses can be elicited using TH2 adjuvants. TH2 adjuvant generally elicits increased levels of IgG1 production relative to antigen immunization without adjuvant. TH2 adjuvants suitable for use in the present invention include, for example, mineral-containing compositions, oil emulsions, and ADP-ribosylating toxins and detoxified derivatives thereof. Mineral-containing compositions such as aluminum salts are preferred TH2 adjuvants for use in the present invention.

本发明优选包括含TH1佐剂和TH2佐剂组合的组合物。这种组合物优选引起增强的TH1和增强的TH2应答,即,IgG1和IgG2a的生产相对于不用佐剂的免疫均增加。相对于用单一佐剂的免疫(即,相对于只用TH1佐剂的免疫或只用TH2佐剂的免疫),包含TH1和TH2佐剂组合的组合物更优选引起TH1和/或TH2免疫应答增强。The present invention preferably includes compositions comprising a combination of a TH1 adjuvant and a TH2 adjuvant. Such compositions preferably elicit enhanced TH1 and enhanced TH2 responses, ie, increased production of both IgG1 and IgG2a relative to immunization without adjuvant. Compositions comprising a combination of TH1 and TH2 adjuvants more preferably elicit a TH1 and/or TH2 immune response relative to immunization with a single adjuvant (i.e. relative to immunization with only TH1 adjuvant or only TH2 adjuvant) enhanced.

所述免疫应答可以是TH1免疫应答和TH2免疫应答中的一种或两种。免疫应答优选提供增强的TH1应答和增强的TH2应答中的一种或两种。The immune response may be one or both of TH1 immune response and TH2 immune response. The immune response preferably provides one or both of an enhanced TH1 response and an enhanced TH2 response.

增强的免疫应答可以是全身免疫应答和粘膜免疫应答中的一种或两种。该免疫应答优选提供增强的全身免疫应答和增强的粘膜免疫应答中的一种或两种。粘膜免疫应答优选为TH2免疫应答。粘膜免疫应答优选包括IgA生成增加。The enhanced immune response can be one or both of a systemic immune response and a mucosal immune response. The immune response preferably provides one or both of an enhanced systemic immune response and an enhanced mucosal immune response. The mucosal immune response is preferably a TH2 immune response. The mucosal immune response preferably includes increased IgA production.

金黄色葡萄球菌感染可影响身体的各部分,因此可将本发明组合物制备成各种形式。例如,可将所述组合物制备为液体溶液或悬浮液形式的注射剂。也可制备适合在注射前溶解或悬浮于液体运载体的固体形式(如冻干组合物或喷雾冻干组合物)。所述组合物可以制备成局部制剂,例如,油膏、乳膏或粉末。该组合物可制备成口服给药制剂,如片剂或胶囊,喷雾剂,或糖浆剂(任选调味)。所述组合物可以制备成使用细粉或喷雾的肺部给药制剂,例如吸入器。可将所述组合物制备为栓剂或阴道栓。所述组合物可以制成鼻部、耳部或眼部给药制剂,例如滴剂。组合物可以是试剂盒形式,设计成刚好在给予患者之前重建合并的组合物。此类试剂盒可包含一种或多种液体形式的抗原以及一种或多种冻干抗原。S. aureus infection can affect various parts of the body and thus the compositions of the present invention can be prepared in a variety of forms. For example, the composition can be prepared as an injection in the form of a liquid solution or suspension. Solid forms suitable for solution in, or suspension in, liquid vehicles prior to injection (eg lyophilized or spray lyophilized compositions) can also be prepared. The compositions may be prepared in topical formulations, eg, ointments, creams or powders. The composition can be prepared as a preparation for oral administration, such as tablet or capsule, spray, or syrup (optionally flavored). The composition may be prepared for pulmonary administration using a fine powder or spray, eg, an inhaler. The composition can be prepared as a suppository or pessary. The composition may be formulated for nasal, otic or ophthalmic administration, such as drops. The compositions may be in the form of a kit designed to reconstitute the combined composition just prior to administration to a patient. Such kits may comprise one or more antigens in liquid form as well as one or more lyophilized antigens.

如果组合物要在临用前制备(例如,组分以冻干形式存在时)和以试剂盒形式存在,该试剂盒可包括两个药瓶,或者可包括一个填充好的注射器和一个药瓶,注射器内容物用于在临用前重新激活药瓶内容物。If the composition is to be prepared just before use (for example, when the components are in lyophilized form) and in kit form, the kit may include two vials, or may include a filled syringe and a vial , the contents of the syringe are used to reactivate the contents of the vial just before use.

用作疫苗的免疫原性组合物包含免疫有效量的抗原,以及需要的任何其它组分。“免疫有效量”指在一次剂量中或作为一系列剂量的一部分给予个体的治疗或预防有效用量。此用量取决于所治疗个体的健康和身体状况、年龄、所治疗个体的分类地位(如非人灵长类动物、灵长类动物等)、个体的免疫系统合成抗体的能力、所需的保护程度、疫苗配方、治疗医生对医学情况的评估和其它相关因素。预计所述用量将落入可通过常规试验测定的较宽范围内。如果组合物中包含一种以上抗原,两种抗原的剂量可以彼此相同或不同。Immunogenic compositions for use as vaccines comprise an immunologically effective amount of an antigen, and any other components required. An "immunologically effective amount" refers to a therapeutically or prophylactically effective amount administered to a subject in one dose or as part of a series of doses. This amount depends on the health and physical condition, age, taxonomic status (e.g., non-human primate, primate, etc.) of the individual to be treated, the ability of the individual's immune system to synthesize antibodies, the protection desired The extent of the vaccine, the vaccine formulation, the treating physician's assessment of the medical condition, and other relevant factors. Such amounts are expected to fall within a wide range that can be determined by routine experimentation. If more than one antigen is included in the composition, the doses of the two antigens may be the same or different from each other.

如上所述,一种组合物可包含温度保护剂,该组分可能在含佐剂的组合物(特别是含有矿物质佐剂,如铝盐的组合物)中特别有用。如参考文献206所述,可将液体温度保护剂加入水性疫苗组合物以降低其凝固点,例如将凝固点降低至0℃以下。因此,可将组合物储存在0℃以下,但在其凝固点以上以便抑制热分解。温度保护剂还允许冷冻组合物,同时保护矿物盐佐剂以免在冷冻和融化后凝聚或沉淀,还可在高温,例如40℃以上保护组合物。可混合起始水性疫苗和液体温度保护剂,从而该液体温度保护剂形成最终混合物的1-80体积%。合适的温度保护剂应该是对人安全的、易于混溶/可溶于水的、并且不应损害组合物的其他成分(如抗原和佐剂)。例子包括甘油、丙二醇和/或聚乙二醇(PEG)。合适PEG的平均分子量可以是200-20,000Da。在优选实施方式中,聚乙二醇的平均分子量可以约为300Da(‘PEG-300’)。As noted above, a composition may contain a temperature protective agent, which component may be particularly useful in adjuvanted compositions, particularly those containing mineral adjuvants such as aluminum salts. As described in reference 206, a liquid temperature protective agent can be added to an aqueous vaccine composition to lower its freezing point, eg, to lower the freezing point below 0°C. Thus, the composition may be stored below 0°C, but above its freezing point in order to inhibit thermal decomposition. Temperature protectants also allow freezing of the composition while protecting the mineral salt adjuvant from agglomeration or precipitation after freezing and thawing, and also protect the composition at elevated temperatures, eg above 40°C. The starting aqueous vaccine and the liquid thermoprotectant may be mixed such that the liquid thermoprotectant forms 1-80% by volume of the final mixture. A suitable thermoprotectant should be safe for humans, readily miscible/soluble in water, and should not damage other components of the composition (such as antigens and adjuvants). Examples include glycerin, propylene glycol and/or polyethylene glycol (PEG). A suitable PEG may have an average molecular weight of 200-20,000 Da. In a preferred embodiment, the polyethylene glycol may have an average molecular weight of about 300 Da ('PEG-300').

本发明提供一种免疫原性组合物,其包含:(i)选自第一、第二、第三或第四抗原组的一种或多种抗原;和(ii)温度保护剂。该组合物可通过混合以下组分形成:(i)包含选自第一、第二、第三或第四抗原组的一种或多种抗原的水性组合物;和(ii)温度保护剂。然后,该混合物可储存于,例如0℃以下、0-20℃、20-35℃、35-55℃或更高温度。它可以液体或冻结形式储存。该混合物可以是冻干的。或者,该组合物可通过混合以下组分形成:(i)包含选自第一、第二、第三或第四抗原组的一种或多种抗原的干燥组合物;和(ii)包含温度保护剂的液体组合物。因此,可利用组分(ii)重建组分(i)。The present invention provides an immunogenic composition comprising: (i) one or more antigens selected from the first, second, third or fourth antigen group; and (ii) a temperature protective agent. The composition may be formed by mixing: (i) an aqueous composition comprising one or more antigens selected from the first, second, third or fourth antigen groups; and (ii) a temperature protective agent. The mixture can then be stored, for example, below 0°C, 0-20°C, 20-35°C, 35-55°C or higher. It can be stored in liquid or frozen form. The mixture can be lyophilized. Alternatively, the composition may be formed by mixing: (i) a dry composition comprising one or more antigens selected from the first, second, third or fourth antigen group; and (ii) comprising a temperature Liquid compositions of protectants. Therefore, component (ii) can be used to reconstitute component (i).

治疗方法和疫苗给予Treatment and Vaccine Administration

本发明还提供了使哺乳动物产生免疫应答的方法,包括给予有效量的本发明组合物的步骤。所述免疫应答优选为保护性,优选涉及抗体和/或细胞介导的免疫。该方法可以引起加强应答。The present invention also provides a method for raising an immune response in a mammal, comprising the step of administering an effective amount of the composition of the present invention. The immune response is preferably protective, preferably involving antibody and/or cell-mediated immunity. This approach can elicit a boosted response.

本发明还提供联合用作药物的至少两种本发明抗原,以便,例如用于使哺乳动物产生免疫应答。The invention also provides at least two antigens of the invention for use in combination as a medicament, for example for raising an immune response in a mammal.

本发明也提供至少两种本发明抗原在制备使哺乳动物产生免疫应答的药物中的应用。The present invention also provides the use of at least two antigens of the present invention in the preparation of a medicament for producing an immune response in a mammal.

通过这些应用和方法在哺乳动物中产生免疫应答,能保护该哺乳动物免遭金黄色葡萄球菌感染,包括医院感染。更具体地说,可保护哺乳动物免遭皮肤感染、肺炎、脑膜炎、骨髓炎、心内膜炎、中毒性休克综合征和/或败血症。The generation of an immune response in a mammal by these uses and methods protects the mammal from S. aureus infections, including nosocomial infections. More specifically, mammals can be protected from skin infections, pneumonia, meningitis, osteomyelitis, endocarditis, toxic shock syndrome and/or sepsis.

本发明还提供包含第一组分和第二组分的试剂盒,其中第一组分和第二组分均非上述的本发明组合物,但可混合所述第一组分和第二组分以提供上述的本发明组合物。所述试剂盒还可以包括含有下列一种或多种的第三组分:说明书、注射器或其它递送装置、佐剂或药学上可接受的配制溶液。The present invention also provides a kit comprising a first component and a second component, wherein neither the first component nor the second component is the above-mentioned composition of the invention, but the first component and the second component may be mixed to provide the composition of the invention described above. The kit can also include a third component comprising one or more of the following: instructions, a syringe or other delivery device, an adjuvant, or a pharmaceutically acceptable formulation solution.

本发明还提供了一种预填充有本发明免疫原性组合物的递送装置。The invention also provides a delivery device pre-filled with an immunogenic composition of the invention.

所述哺乳动物优选人。如果预防性使用疫苗,人优选儿童(如幼童或婴儿);如果疫苗用于治疗用途,人优选青少年或成人。打算给予儿童的疫苗也可给予成年人,以评估(例如)其安全性、剂量、免疫原性等。可有用地按照本发明免疫的其它哺乳动物是牛、狗、马和猪。The mammal is preferably a human. If the vaccine is used prophylactically, the human is preferably a child (such as a young child or infant); if the vaccine is used for therapeutic use, the human is preferably an adolescent or an adult. Vaccines intended for children may also be administered to adults to assess, for example, their safety, dosage, immunogenicity, and the like. Other mammals which may be usefully immunized according to the invention are cattle, dogs, horses and pigs.

检测治疗性治疗的功效的一种方式包括在给予本发明组合物后监测金黄色葡萄球菌感染。一种检查预防性治疗疗效的方法包括给予组合物后监测抵御本发明组合物中抗原的全身免疫应答(如监测IgG1和IgG2a产生水平)和/或粘膜免疫应答(如监测IgA产生水平)。通常,在免疫后攻击前测定抗原特异性血清抗体应答,而在免疫后攻击后测定抗原特异性粘膜抗体应答。One way of monitoring the efficacy of therapeutic treatment involves monitoring S. aureus infection after administration of the compositions of the invention. One method of examining the efficacy of prophylactic treatment involves monitoring the systemic immune response (such as monitoring the level of IgG1 and IgG2a production) and/or the mucosal immune response (such as monitoring the level of IgA production) against the antigen in the composition of the invention after administration of the composition. Typically, antigen-specific serum antibody responses are measured prior to post-immunization challenge and antigen-specific mucosal antibody responses are measured after post-immunization challenge.

评价本发明组合物免疫原性的另一方法是重组表达蛋白,以便通过免疫印迹和/或微阵列筛查病人血清或粘膜分泌物。蛋白质和患者样品间的阳性反应表明该患者已经对受试蛋白产生免疫应答。该方法也可用于鉴定免疫显性抗原和/或抗原中的表位。Another method for assessing the immunogenicity of the compositions of the invention is to recombinantly express the protein for screening patient sera or mucosal secretions by immunoblotting and/or microarray. A positive reaction between the protein and the patient sample indicates that the patient has developed an immune response to the test protein. This method can also be used to identify immunodominant antigens and/or epitopes in antigens.

通过用疫苗组合物刺激金黄色葡萄球菌感染的动物模型,如豚鼠或小鼠可在体内测定疫苗组合物的效果。具体地说,研究金黄色葡萄球菌感染疾病有三种有用的动物模型,即:(i)小鼠脓肿模型[207],(ii)小鼠致死性感染模型[207]和(iii)小鼠肺炎模型[208]。脓肿模型在静脉内攻击后观察小鼠肾脏中的脓肿。致死性感染模型在通过静脉内或腹膜内途径感染正常-致死剂量的金黄色葡萄球菌后观察存活小鼠数量。肺炎模型也观察存活率,但采用鼻内感染。有用的疫苗可在一种或多种这些模型中有效。例如,对于某些临床情况,可能优选抵御肺炎,而无需防止血液传播或促进调理作用;在其它情况中,主要需要防止血液传播。不同的抗原和不同的抗原组合有利于有效疫苗的不同方面。The efficacy of the vaccine composition can be determined in vivo by challenging an animal model of S. aureus infection, such as guinea pigs or mice, with the vaccine composition. Specifically, there are three useful animal models for studying S. aureus infection disease, namely: (i) mouse abscess model [207], (ii) mouse lethal infection model [207] and (iii) mouse pneumonia model [208]. Abscess Model Abscesses in mouse kidneys were observed following intravenous challenge. Lethal Infection Model The number of surviving mice was observed after infection with a normal-lethal dose of S. aureus by the intravenous or intraperitoneal route. The pneumonia model was also observed for survival, but with intranasal infection. Useful vaccines will be effective in one or more of these models. For example, for certain clinical situations, it may be preferable to protect against pneumonia without preventing blood transmission or promoting opsonization; in other cases, prevention of blood transmission is primarily desired. Different antigens and different combinations of antigens facilitate different aspects of an effective vaccine.

本发明的组合物通常直接给予患者。可通过胃肠外注射(如皮下、腹膜内、静脉内、肌肉内或注射至组织间隙),或通过粘膜,如通过直肠、口腔(如片剂、喷雾剂)、阴道、局部、透皮或经皮、鼻内、眼、耳、肺或其它粘膜途径实现直接递送。Compositions of the invention are usually administered directly to a patient. Can be administered parenterally (eg, subcutaneously, intraperitoneally, intravenously, intramuscularly, or into an interstitial space), or via the mucosa, eg, rectally, orally (eg, tablet, spray), vaginally, topically, transdermally, or Direct delivery is achieved by transdermal, intranasal, ophthalmic, otic, pulmonary or other mucosal routes.

本发明可用于引起全身和/或粘膜免疫,优选引起增强的全身和/或粘膜免疫。The present invention can be used to elicit systemic and/or mucosal immunity, preferably enhanced systemic and/or mucosal immunity.

增强的全身和/或粘膜免疫优选表现为TH1和/或TH2免疫应答增强。增强的免疫应答优选包括IgG1和/或IgG2a和/或IgA的产量升高。Enhanced systemic and/or mucosal immunity is preferably manifested as an enhanced TH1 and/or TH2 immune response. The enhanced immune response preferably comprises increased production of IgG1 and/or IgG2a and/or IgA.

可以通过单剂量方案或多剂量方案进行给药。多剂量可以用于初次免疫方案和/或加强免疫方案。在多剂量方案中,可通过相同或不同的途径给予多个剂量,例如胃肠外初免、粘膜加强,粘膜初免、胃肠外加强等。一般以至少1周(例如约2周、约3周、约4周、约6周、约8周、约10周、约12周、约16周等)的间隔给予多个剂量。Administration can be by a single dose regimen or by a multiple dose regimen. Multiple doses can be used in the primary and/or booster regimens. In multiple dose regimens, multiple doses may be administered by the same or different routes, eg, parenteral prime, mucosal boost, mucosal prime, parenteral boost, and the like. Multiple doses are generally administered at intervals of at least 1 week (eg, about 2 weeks, about 3 weeks, about 4 weeks, about 6 weeks, about 8 weeks, about 10 weeks, about 12 weeks, about 16 weeks, etc.).

可利用本发明制备的疫苗治疗儿童和成年人。因此,人患者可以小于1岁、1-5岁、5-15岁、15-55岁或至少55岁。接受疫苗的病人优选老年人(如≥50岁,≥60岁,优选≥65岁),年轻人(如≤5岁),住院患者、卫生保健人员、武装机构和军事人员、孕妇、慢性病患者或免疫缺陷患者。然而,所述疫苗不仅适用于这些群体,可用于更广泛的群体。Both children and adults can be treated with vaccines prepared according to the invention. Thus, a human patient can be less than 1 year old, 1-5 years old, 5-15 years old, 15-55 years old, or at least 55 years old. Patients who receive the vaccine are preferably elderly (such as ≥50 years old, ≥60 years old, preferably ≥65 years old), young people (such as ≤5 years old), hospitalized patients, health care personnel, armed institutions and military personnel, pregnant women, patients with chronic diseases or immunocompromised patients. However, the vaccines are not only suitable for these groups, but can be used for a wider range of groups.

可将本发明产生的疫苗与其它疫苗基本上同时(在卫生保健专业人员或疫苗接种中心的同一用药咨询或访问期间)给予患者,例如与流感疫苗、麻疹疫苗、腮腺炎疫苗、风疹疫苗、MMR疫苗、水痘疫苗、MMRV疫苗、白喉疫苗、破伤风疫苗、百日咳疫苗、DTP疫苗、偶联的B型流感嗜血杆菌疫苗、脊髓灰质炎病毒灭活疫苗、乙型肝炎病毒疫苗、脑膜炎球菌偶联疫苗(如四价A-C-W135-Y疫苗)、呼吸道合胞病毒疫苗等基本上同时给药。适合共同给予的其它非葡萄球菌疫苗可包括参考文献51的第33-46行所列的一种或多种抗原。Vaccines produced according to the invention may be administered to patients substantially simultaneously (during the same medication consultation or visit with a health care professional or vaccination center) with other vaccines, such as influenza vaccine, measles vaccine, mumps vaccine, rubella vaccine, MMR vaccine Vaccines, Varicella Vaccine, MMRV Vaccine, Diphtheria Vaccine, Tetanus Vaccine, Pertussis Vaccine, DTP Vaccine, Conjugated Haemophilus Influenzae Type B Vaccine, Inactivated Polio Virus Vaccine, Hepatitis B Virus Vaccine, Meningococcal Combined vaccines (such as quadrivalent A-C-W135-Y vaccines), respiratory syncytial virus vaccines, etc. are basically administered at the same time. Other non-staphylococcal vaccines suitable for co-administration may include one or more of the antigens listed in ref. 51, lines 33-46.

核酸免疫nucleic acid immunization

上述免疫原性组合物包含金黄色葡萄球菌的多肽抗原。然而,在所有情况下,可用编码那些多肽的核酸(通常是DNA)替换多肽抗原,以得到依据核酸免疫的组合物、方法和用途。目前,核酸免疫是已开发的领域(例如,参见参考文献209-216等)。The above immunogenic composition comprises a polypeptide antigen of Staphylococcus aureus. In all cases, however, the polypeptide antigens may be replaced by nucleic acids (usually DNA) encoding those polypeptides to obtain compositions, methods and uses based on nucleic acid immunization. Nucleic acid immunization is currently an developed field (eg, see refs 209-216, etc.).

递送给患者后编码免疫原的核酸表达,然后所表达的免疫原刺激免疫系统。活性成分通常采取核酸载体形式,其包含:(i)启动子;(ii)操作性连接于启动子的免疫原编码序列;以及任选的(iii)可选择标记物。优选的载体还可包含(iv)复制起点;和(v)位于(ii)下游并与其操作性连接的转录终止子。通常,(i)和(v)为真核,(iii)和(iv)为原核。Following delivery to the patient, the nucleic acid encoding the immunogen is expressed, and the expressed immunogen then stimulates the immune system. The active ingredient typically takes the form of a nucleic acid vector comprising: (i) a promoter; (ii) an immunogen coding sequence operably linked to the promoter; and optionally (iii) a selectable marker. A preferred vector may also comprise (iv) an origin of replication; and (v) a transcription terminator downstream of and operably linked to (ii). Typically, (i) and (v) are eukaryotic and (iii) and (iv) are prokaryotic.

优选的启动子是病毒启动子,如巨细胞病毒(CMV)的启动子。除了启动子,载体还可以包含转录调节序列(如增强子),其与启动子在功能上相互作用。优选的载体包括立即-早期CMV增强子/启动子,更优选的载体还包括CMV内含子A。启动子操作性连接于编码免疫原的下游序列,从而免疫原编码序列的表达在启动子的控制下。A preferred promoter is a viral promoter, such as that of cytomegalovirus (CMV). In addition to a promoter, a vector may also contain transcriptional regulatory sequences (such as enhancers), which functionally interact with the promoter. Preferred vectors include the immediate-early CMV enhancer/promoter, more preferred vectors also include CMV intron A. The promoter is operably linked to the downstream sequence encoding the immunogen such that expression of the immunogen coding sequence is under the control of the promoter.

如果使用标记物,优选其在微生物宿主中(如原核生物中,细菌、酵母中)具有功能。标记物优选原核选择性标记物(如在原核启动子控制下转录)。方便起见,典型的标记物为抗生素抗性基因。If a marker is used, it is preferably functional in a microbial host (eg, in prokaryotes, bacteria, yeast). The marker is preferably a prokaryotic selectable marker (eg transcription under the control of a prokaryotic promoter). For convenience, typical markers are antibiotic resistance genes.

本发明的载体优选自主复制附加型或染色体外载体,如质粒。The vectors of the invention are preferably autonomously replicating episomal or extrachromosomal vectors, such as plasmids.

本发明的载体优选包含复制起点。该复制起点优选在原核生物中有活性而在真核生物中无活性。The vectors of the present invention preferably comprise an origin of replication. The origin of replication is preferably active in prokaryotes and inactive in eukaryotes.

因此,优选的载体包含用于选择载体的原核标记物、原核复制起点以及驱动免疫原编码序列转录的真核启动子。因此,载体(a)在原核宿主中扩增并选择,但不进行多肽表达,但(b)在真核宿主中表达,但不进行扩增。这种安排对于核酸免疫载体来说是理想的。Thus, preferred vectors comprise a prokaryotic marker for vector selection, a prokaryotic origin of replication, and a eukaryotic promoter to drive transcription of the immunogen coding sequence. Thus, the vector (a) is amplified and selected in a prokaryotic host, but not subjected to polypeptide expression, but (b) is expressed in a eukaryotic host, but not amplified. This arrangement is ideal for nucleic acid immunization vectors.

本发明的载体可以在编码序列下游包含真核转录终止序列。这样能增强转录水平。如果编码序列本身不包含聚腺苷酸化序列,本发明的载体优选包含聚腺苷酸化序列。优选的聚腺苷酸化序列来自牛生长激素。The vector of the present invention may contain a eukaryotic transcription termination sequence downstream of the coding sequence. This enhances transcription levels. The vector of the invention preferably comprises a polyadenylation sequence if the coding sequence itself does not contain a polyadenylation sequence. A preferred polyadenylation sequence is from bovine somatotropin.

本发明的载体可以包含多克隆位点。The vectors of the invention may contain multiple cloning sites.

除免疫原和标记物的编码序列外,载体可以包含第二真核编码序列。载体还可在所述第二序列上游包含IRES,以便从与该免疫原相同转录物翻译第二真核多肽。或者,免疫原编码序列可以在IRES的下游。In addition to the coding sequences for the immunogen and marker, the vector may contain a second eukaryotic coding sequence. The vector may also comprise an IRES upstream of said second sequence, so that the second eukaryotic polypeptide is translated from the same transcript as the immunogen. Alternatively, the immunogen coding sequence can be downstream of the IRES.

本发明的载体可以包含非甲基化CpG基序,如非甲基化DNA序列,它们都在鸟苷之前有一个胞嘧啶,侧接有两个5′嘌呤和两个3′嘧啶。已证明非甲基化形式的这些DNA基序是几类免疫细胞的强效刺激物。The vectors of the invention may contain unmethylated CpG motifs, such as unmethylated DNA sequences, all of which have a cytosine preceding the guanosine flanked by two 5'purines and two 3'pyrimidines. These DNA motifs in unmethylated form have been shown to be potent stimulators of several types of immune cells.

载体可以靶向方式递送。受体介导的DNA递送技术描述于,例如参考文献217-222。在基因治疗方案中,以约100ng-200mg DNA的范围局部给予包含核酸的治疗性组合物。在基因治疗方案中也能使用浓度范围是约500ng-50mg,约1μg-2mg,约5μg-500μg以及约20μg-100μg DNA。各种因素,例如作用方法(如增强或抑制编码基因产物的水平)以及转化和表达效率是影响最终效果所需剂量的考虑因素。如果需要在更大面积组织上的更强表达,可能需要更大量的载体或在连续给药方案中重复给予相同量,或对不同相邻或附近组织部分多次给药,以达到阳性治疗效果。在所有情况下,采用临床试验中的常规实验方法确定最优治疗效果的具体范围。Vectors can be delivered in a targeted manner. Receptor-mediated DNA delivery techniques are described, eg, in refs 217-222. In a gene therapy regimen, a therapeutic composition comprising a nucleic acid is administered topically in the range of about 100 ng-200 mg of DNA. Concentration ranges of about 500 ng-50 mg, about 1 μg-2 mg, about 5 μg-500 μg, and about 20 μg-100 μg DNA can also be used in gene therapy regimens. Factors such as the method of action (eg, enhancing or inhibiting the level of the encoded gene product) and the efficiency of transformation and expression are considerations in the dosage required to affect the ultimate effect. If stronger expression over a larger area of tissue is desired, larger amounts of vector or repeated administration of the same amount in a sequential dosing regimen, or multiple doses to different adjacent or nearby tissue segments may be required to achieve a positive therapeutic effect . In all cases, the specific range for optimal therapeutic effect will be determined using routine experimental methods in clinical trials.

可用基因递送运载体来递送载体。基因递送运载体可以是病毒或非病毒来源(通常参见参考文献223-226)。The vector can be delivered using a gene delivery vehicle. Gene delivery vehicles can be of viral or non-viral origin (see generally refs. 223-226).

本领域熟知用于递送所需核酸并在所需细胞中表达的病毒载体。示例性的病毒载体包括但不限于:重组逆转录病毒(例如参考文献227-237),α病毒载体(如辛德毕斯病毒载体、西门利克森林病毒(ATCC VR-67;ATCCVR-1247)、罗斯河病毒(ATCC VR-373;ATCC VR-1246)和委内瑞拉马脑炎病毒(ATCC VR-923;ATCC VR-1250;ATCC VR 1249;ATCC VR-532);还可以使用这些病毒的杂交体或嵌合体)、痘病毒载体(如牛痘、鸟痘、金丝雀痘、改性的安卡拉牛痘等)、腺病毒载体和腺伴随病毒(AAV)载体(例如参见参考文献238-243)。还可采用给予与杀伤的腺病毒连接的DNA[244]。Viral vectors are well known in the art for delivery of desired nucleic acids and expression in desired cells. Exemplary viral vectors include, but are not limited to: recombinant retroviruses (e.g. refs 227-237), alphavirus vectors (e.g. Sindbis virus vectors, Semenlik Forest virus (ATCC VR-67; ATCC VR-1247), Ross River Viruses (ATCC VR-373; ATCC VR-1246) and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (ATCC VR-923; ATCC VR-1250; ATCC VR 1249; ATCC VR-532); hybrids or chimeras of these viruses can also be used ), poxvirus vectors (such as vaccinia, fowlpox, canarypox, modified vaccinia Ankara, etc.), adenovirus vectors and adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors (see eg refs 238-243). Administration of DNA linked to a killed adenovirus can also be used [244].

还能使用非病毒递送载体和方法,包括但不限于:连接或不连接于杀杀伤腺病毒的聚阳离子凝集DNA[如244],配体连接的DNA[245],真核细胞递送运载体细胞[如参考文献246-250]和核电荷中和或与细胞膜融合。还可利用裸DNA。参考文献251和252中描述了引入裸DNA的示例性方法。参考文献253-257描述了可用作递送载体的脂质体(例如,免疫脂质体)。参考文献258和259中描述了其它方法。Non-viral delivery vehicles and methods can also be used, including but not limited to: polycationic condensed DNA linked or not linked to a killer adenovirus [e.g. 244], ligand-linked DNA [245], eukaryotic cell delivery vehicles [eg refs 246-250] and nuclear charge neutralization or fusion with cell membranes. Naked DNA can also be utilized. Exemplary methods for introducing naked DNA are described in references 251 and 252. References 253-257 describe liposomes (eg, immunoliposomes) that can be used as delivery vehicles. Other methods are described in refs 258 and 259.

其它适用的非病毒递送包括机械递送系统,如参考文献259所述的方法。此外,可通过光聚合水凝胶材料沉积或使用离子辐射递送此编码序列和其表达产物[如参考文献260和261]。可用于递送编码序列的其它常规基因递送方法包括例如,使用手持式基因传递颗粒枪[262]或使用离子辐射激活转移的基因[260和261]。Other suitable non-viral delivery systems include mechanical delivery systems, such as those described in reference 259. Furthermore, this coding sequence and its expression products can be delivered by deposition of photopolymerizable hydrogel materials or using ionizing radiation [eg refs 260 and 261]. Other conventional gene delivery methods that can be used to deliver coding sequences include, for example, the use of hand-held gene delivery particle guns [262] or the use of ionizing radiation to activate transferred genes [260 and 261].

使用PLG(乙交酯-丙交酯共聚物)微粒递送DNA是尤其优选的方法,如通过吸附于微粒,微粒经任选处理表面带负电(如用SDS处理)或带正电(如用阳离子洗涤剂如CTAB处理)。The use of PLG (glycolide-lactide copolymer) microparticles is a particularly preferred method for DNA delivery, e.g. by adsorption to microparticles, which are optionally surface treated negatively (e.g. with SDS) or positively (e.g. with cationic Detergents such as CTAB treatment).

表皮葡萄球菌(S.epidermidis)Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis)

虽然本发明将注意力集中在金黄色葡萄球菌,但本发明人也意识到sta006和sta011抗原与表皮葡萄球菌有同源性。例如,SEQ ID NO:234是表皮葡萄球菌菌株M23864:W1的‘铁(Fe+3)ABC超家族ATP结合盒转运体,结合蛋白’,与SEQ ID NO:42(sta006)有73%相同性,SEQ ID NO:235是表皮葡萄球菌菌株RP62A的‘推定脂蛋白’,与SEQ ID NO:47(sta011)有67%相同性。While the present invention focuses on S. aureus, the inventors also realized that the sta006 and sta011 antigens have homology to S. epidermidis. For example, SEQ ID NO: 234 is the 'Iron (Fe+3) ABC superfamily ATP-binding cassette transporter, binding protein' of Staphylococcus epidermidis strain M23864:W1, 73% identical to SEQ ID NO: 42 (sta006) , SEQ ID NO: 235 is the 'putative lipoprotein' of Staphylococcus epidermidis strain RP62A, 67% identical to SEQ ID NO: 47 (sta011).

表皮葡萄球菌通常存在于人皮肤上,有时可致病。其感染通常与医疗装置,例如导管相关,并且是医院感染的原因。本文公开的sta006和sta011抵御金黄色葡萄球菌的结果提示表皮葡萄球菌中的同源性蛋白可用作免疫以便抵御该病毒。Staphylococcus epidermidis is commonly found on human skin and can sometimes cause disease. Its infection is often associated with medical devices, such as catheters, and is the cause of nosocomial infections. The results disclosed herein for sta006 and sta011 against S. aureus suggest that homologous proteins in S. epidermidis can be used for immunization against this virus.

Other preferred fragments lack one or more amino acids (such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25 or more) at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 234/235 ) and/or one or more amino acids (such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25 or more) at the N-terminal of SEQ ID NO: 234/235 multiple), while retaining at least one epitope of SEQ ID NO: 234/235.

更泛泛地说,本发明提供任何葡萄球菌种类的sta006和/或sta011同源物在免疫哺乳动物以便抵御该种类中的应用。More generally, the invention provides the use of sta006 and/or sta011 homologues of any Staphylococcus species for immunizing a mammal against that species.

术语“抗体”包括完整的免疫球蛋白分子及其能结合抗原的片段。它们包括杂交(嵌合)抗体分子[263,264];F(ab′)2和F(ab)片段和Fv分子;非共价异源二聚体[265,266];单链Fv分子(sFv)[267];二聚和三聚抗体片段构建物;微型抗体[268,269];人源化抗体分子[270-272];和获自此类分子的任何功能片段,以及通过非常规工艺,如噬菌体展示获得的抗体。所述抗体优选单克隆抗体。获取单克隆抗体的方法为本领域熟知。优选人源化或完全人抗体。The term "antibody" includes intact immunoglobulin molecules and fragments thereof that are capable of binding antigen.

概述overview

除非另有说明,本发明的实施将采用常规的化学、生物化学、分子生物学、免疫学和药理学方法,这些方法是所述领域技术人员已知的。这些技术在文献中已有充分描述。参见例如,参考文献273-280等。The practice of the present invention will employ, unless otherwise indicated, conventional methods of chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology and pharmacology, which are known to those skilled in the art. Such techniques are fully described in the literature. See, eg, refs. 273-280 et al.

上文使用“GI”编号。GI编号,或者“基因信息识别符”(GenInfo Identifier)是NCBI将序列加入其数据库时,连续对每一序列记录指定的一串数字。GI编号与序列记录登录号不相似。序列更新(如纠正或加入更多注释或信息)后,将接受新GI编号。因此,与给定GI编号相关的序列是不变的。"GI" numbers are used above. GI number, or "GenInfo Identifier" (GenInfo Identifier) is a string of numbers assigned to each sequence record continuously when NCBI adds the sequence to its database. GI numbers are not similar to sequence record accession numbers. New GI numbers will be accepted after sequence updates (eg corrections or addition of additional notes or information). Therefore, the sequence associated with a given GI number is invariant.

如果本发明涉及“表位”,该表位可以是B细胞表位和/或T细胞表位。可凭经验确定此类表位(如利用PEPSCAN[281,282]或相似方法),或可预测这些表位(如利用Jameson-Wolf抗原性指数[283]、基于矩阵的方法[284]、MAPITOPE[285]、TEPITOPE[286,287]、神经网络[288]、OptiMer & EpiMer[289,290]、ADEPT[291]、Tsites[292]、亲水性[293]、抗原性指数[294]、或参考文献295-299中所述的方法等)。表位是抗体或T细胞受体的抗原结合位点识别并结合的抗原的某部分,也称作“抗原决定簇”。If the present invention refers to an "epitope", this epitope may be a B-cell epitope and/or a T-cell epitope. Such epitopes can be determined empirically (eg, using PEPSCAN [281, 282] or similar methods), or can be predicted (eg, using the Jameson-Wolf Antigenicity Index [283], matrix-based methods [284], MAPITOPE [285], TEPITOPE [286, 287], neural network [288], OptiMer & EpiMer [289, 290], ADEPT [291], Tsites [292], hydrophilicity [293], antigenicity index [294], or methods described in refs 295-299, etc.). An epitope is a certain portion of an antigen that is recognized and bound by the antigen binding site of an antibody or T cell receptor, also referred to as an "antigenic determinant".

如果省去抗原“结构域”,可包括省去信号肽、胞质结构域、跨膜结构域、胞外结构域等。If the antigen "domain" is omitted, it may include the omission of signal peptide, cytoplasmic domain, transmembrane domain, extracellular domain, etc.

术语“包含”包括“包括”以及“由...组成”,例如,“包含”X的组合物可以仅由X组成或可以包含其它物质,例如X+Y。The term "comprising" includes "including" as well as "consisting of", eg, a composition "comprising" X may consist of X alone or may contain other substances, eg X+Y.

与数值x相关的术语“约”是任选的并表示例如x±10%。The term "about" in relation to a value x is optional and means, for example, x ± 10%.

述及两个氨基酸序列间的序列相同性百分数表示进行比对时,所比较的两条序列中相同氨基酸的百分数。可利用本领域已知的软件程序,例如参考文献300的7.7.18部分所描述的那些进行比对并确定同源性百分数或序列相同性百分数。优选通过Smith-Waterman同源性检索算法进行比对,该算法使用仿射空位检索,其中空位开放罚分12,空位延伸罚分2,BLOSUM矩阵为62。参考文献301中公开了Smith-Waterman同源性检索算法。Reference to a percent sequence identity between two amino acid sequences means, when aligned, the percent of identical amino acids in the two sequences being compared. Alignment and determination of percent homology or percent sequence identity can be performed using software programs known in the art, such as those described in section 7.7.18 of ref. 300. Alignment is preferably performed by the Smith-Waterman homology search algorithm using an affine gap search with a gap opening penalty of 12, a gap extension penalty of 2, and a BLOSUM matrix of 62. The Smith-Waterman homology search algorithm is disclosed in reference 301.

本发明的实施方式Embodiments of the present invention

抗原选择antigen selection

根据各种标准选择金黄色葡萄球菌蛋白用作疫苗组分。S. aureus proteins were selected for use as vaccine components according to various criteria.

IsdA是参与铁摄取的表面蛋白。其可在金黄色葡萄球菌的完整细胞裂解物和细胞壁组分的免疫印迹中检测,分子量高(>250kDa)。此外,标记的抗-IsdA抗体显示胞外结构。可在各种生长和感染条件下观察到这些结构,包括铁阳性条件(其中据报道IsdA表达受抑制)。所述结构具有最多4μm长的尾,典型的取向平行于哺乳动物细胞表面。观察到分离的IsdA-阳性结构粘附于上皮细胞表面,但丧失细胞连接定位。上皮/细菌相互作用可刺激这些结构的表达。此外,本发明人发现IsdA在不同菌株之间保守性良好(在测试的36种菌株中均存在;参见下文),因而对流行菌株的广泛群体赋予保护作用。铁摄取对于毒力至关重要,因此,该蛋白质在细菌生命周期的病理学阶段可能为免疫攻击所用。本发明人发现该蛋白质对人细胞无细胞毒性(参见下文)。该蛋白质还能合理地良好吸附于氢氧化铝(参见下文),从而可用于稳定的制剂以便递送给人。其可用于提供免疫应答以防止细菌的血液传播。IsdA is a surface protein involved in iron uptake. It is detectable in immunoblots of whole cell lysates and cell wall fractions of S. aureus and is of high molecular weight (>250 kDa). In addition, labeled anti-IsdA antibodies showed extracellular structures. These structures can be observed under various growth and infection conditions, including iron positive conditions (where IsdA expression is reported to be suppressed). The structures have tails up to 4 μm long, typically oriented parallel to the mammalian cell surface. Isolated IsdA-positive structures were observed to adhere to the surface of epithelial cells but lose cell junctional localization. Epithelial/bacterial interactions can stimulate the expression of these constructs. Furthermore, the inventors found that IsdA is well conserved across strains (present in all 36 strains tested; see below), thus conferring protection on a broad population of circulating strains. Iron uptake is critical for virulence, so this protein may be used for immune attack during pathological stages of the bacterial life cycle. The inventors found that this protein was not cytotoxic to human cells (see below). The protein also adsorbs reasonably well to aluminum hydroxide (see below) and thus can be used in stable formulations for delivery to humans. It can be used to provide an immune response to prevent blood spread of bacteria.

EsxA和EsxB是小的酸性二聚分泌型蛋白。本发明人发现EsxA在不同菌株之间高度保守(在测试的36种菌株中均存在;参见下文),而EsxB存在于36种菌株中的25种。这些蛋白质参与感染的维持,因此在细菌生命周期的病理学阶段可能为免疫攻击所用。本发明人发现EsxA和EsxB的融合体(‘EsxAB’)对人细胞无细胞毒性(参见下文)。其还能良好吸附于氢氧化铝(参见下文),从而可用于稳定的制剂以便递送给人。因此,这些抗原可用于提供免疫应答以防止细菌的血液传播。EsxA and EsxB are small acidic dimeric secreted proteins. The inventors found that EsxA is highly conserved among the different strains (present in all 36 strains tested; see below), whereas EsxB is present in 25 of the 36 strains. These proteins are involved in the maintenance of infection and thus may be available for immune attack during pathological stages of the bacterial life cycle. The inventors found that a fusion of EsxA and EsxB ('EsxAB') was not cytotoxic to human cells (see below). It also adsorbs well to aluminum hydroxide (see below), allowing for stable formulations for delivery to humans. Therefore, these antigens can be used to provide an immune response to prevent blood spread of bacteria.

Hla是成孔的分泌型毒素。该蛋白在不同菌株之间保守性良好(在测试的36种菌株中均存在;参见下文),因此对流行菌株的广泛群体赋予保护作用。其是重要的毒力因子,因此在细菌生命周期的病理学阶段可能为免疫攻击所用。其对人细胞无细胞毒性(参见下文)。该蛋白质能合理地良好吸附于氢氧化铝(参见下文),从而可用于稳定的制剂以便递送给人。其可用于提供免疫应答以防止肺炎。HIa is a pore-forming secreted toxin. This protein is well conserved across strains (present in all 36 strains tested; see below), thus conferring protection to a broad population of circulating strains. It is an important virulence factor and thus may be used for immune attack during the pathological stages of the bacterial life cycle. It is non-cytotoxic to human cells (see below). The protein adsorbs reasonably well to aluminum hydroxide (see below) and thus can be used in stable formulations for delivery to humans. It can be used to provide an immune response to prevent pneumonia.

Spa是参与Fc结合的表面蛋白。本发明人发现该蛋白在不同菌株之间保守性良好(在测试的36种菌株中均存在),因此对流行菌株的广泛群体赋予保护作用。其对于毒力至关重要,因此在细菌生命周期的病理学阶段可能为免疫攻击所用。该蛋白质还能合理地良好吸附于氢氧化铝(参见下文),从而可用于稳定的制剂以便递送给人。其可用于提供免疫应答以防止细菌的血液传播。Spa is a surface protein involved in Fc binding. The inventors found that this protein is well conserved among different strains (present in all 36 strains tested), thus conferring protection to a broad population of circulating strains. It is essential for virulence and thus may be used for immune attack during pathological stages of the bacterial life cycle. The protein also adsorbs reasonably well to aluminum hydroxide (see below) and thus can be used in stable formulations for delivery to humans. It can be used to provide an immune response to prevent blood spread of bacteria.

Sta006(也称为FhuD2)是参与铁摄取的表面蛋白。本发明人发现该蛋白在不同菌株之间保守性良好(在测试的36种菌株中均存在),因此对流行菌株的广泛群体赋予保护作用。本发明人发现该蛋白对人细胞无细胞毒性(参见下文)。该蛋白质还能合理地良好吸附于氢氧化铝(参见下文),从而可用于稳定的制剂以便递送给人。其可用于提供免疫应答以防止细菌的血液传播。Sta006 (also known as FhuD2) is a surface protein involved in iron uptake. The inventors found that this protein is well conserved among different strains (present in all 36 strains tested), thus conferring protection to a broad population of circulating strains. The inventors have found that this protein is not cytotoxic to human cells (see below). The protein also adsorbs reasonably well to aluminum hydroxide (see below) and thus can be used in stable formulations for delivery to humans. It can be used to provide an immune response to prevent blood spread of bacteria.

Sta011是表面脂蛋白。本发明人发现该蛋白在不同菌株之间保守性良好(在测试的36种菌株中均存在),因此对流行菌株的广泛群体赋予保护作用。本发明人发现该蛋白对人细胞无细胞毒性(参见下文)。该蛋白质还能合理地良好吸附于氢氧化铝(参见下文),从而可用于稳定的制剂以便递送给人。其可用于提供免疫应答以防止细菌的血液传播。该蛋白质显示在有Ca++离子,而没有Mg++离子存在下可组装成寡聚物(参见图8)。这些实验利用5μg重组的无标签Sta011,37℃与浓度从0.5到50mM增加的CaCl2温育25分钟,然后利用透明的非变性凝胶通过凝胶电泳分析。从2mM Ca++开始,特别是>5mM时泳动率变动(表明寡聚化)明显。这些水平与血液Ca++浓度约1.2mM、血清浓度约11mM和乳浓度约32mM相当。EDTA揭示该变动。Sta011 is a surface lipoprotein. The inventors found that this protein is well conserved among different strains (present in all 36 strains tested), thus conferring protection to a broad population of circulating strains. The inventors have found that this protein is not cytotoxic to human cells (see below). The protein also adsorbs reasonably well to aluminum hydroxide (see below) and thus can be used in stable formulations for delivery to humans. It can be used to provide an immune response to prevent blood spread of bacteria. The protein was shown to assemble into oligomers in the presence of Ca ++ ions, but not Mg ++ ions (see Figure 8). These experiments utilized 5 μg of recombinant untagged Sta011 incubated for 25 minutes at 37°C with increasing concentrations of CaCl2 from 0.5 to 50 mM and then analyzed by gel electrophoresis using clear, non-denaturing gels. Starting at 2 mM Ca ++ , a shift in mobility (indicating oligomerization) is evident especially at >5 mM. These levels are comparable to blood Ca ++ concentrations of approximately 1.2 mM, serum concentrations of approximately 11 mM, and milk concentrations of approximately 32 mM. EDTA reveals this change.

分泌蛋白的表面消化[302]和/或分析揭示以下的肽片段:ClfA、ClfB、coA、eap、ebhA、ebpS、efb、emp、FnBA、FnBB、hla、IsdA、IsdB、lsdH、ukD、lukS、sdrD、sdrE、sasB、sasD、sasF、spa、sta001、sta002、sta003、sta004、sta005、sta006、sta007、sta008、sta009、sta010、sta011、sta019、sta023、sta024、sta028、sta036、sta040、sta049、sta050、sta054、sta057、sta064、sta065、sta073、sta095、sta096、sta098、sta100、sta101、sta102、sta103、sta105、sta107、sta108、sta109、sta111、sta112、sta113、sta115、sta116、sta117、sta118、sta120、NW_06、NW_07、NW_08、NW_09和NW_10,例如SEQ ID NO:228和229鉴定为sta019的片段。Surface digestion [302] and/or analysis of secreted proteins revealed the following peptide fragments: CIfA, CIfB, coA, eap, ebhA, ebpS, efb, emp, FnBA, FnBB, hla, IsdA, IsdB, lsdH, ukD, lukS, sdrD, sdrE, sasB, sasD, sasF, spa, sta001, sta002, sta003, sta004, sta005, sta006, sta007, sta008, sta009, sta010, sta011, sta019, sta023, sta024, sta028, sta036, sta040, sta049, sta050, sta054, sta057, sta064, sta065, sta073, sta095, sta096, sta098, sta100, sta101, sta102, sta103, sta105, sta107, sta108, sta109, sta111, sta112, sta113, sta115, sta116, sta117, sta118, sta120, NW_06, NW_07, NW_08, NW_09, and NW_10, such as SEQ ID NO: 228 and 229, were identified as fragments of sta019.

偶联的荚膜糖可用于提供调理免疫力。血清型5和8覆盖约85%的临床分离物。Conjugated capsular saccharides can be used to provide opsonic immunity. Serotypes 5 and 8 cover approximately 85% of clinical isolates.

菌株覆盖度Strain coverage

利用一组36种临床分离物表示流行菌株,包括属于代表全球流行CA-MRSA(社区相关-甲氧西林耐药金黄色葡萄球菌)中绝大多数的5种同种细胞谱系的菌株。还包括HA-MRSA(医院相关MRSA)和非-MRSA菌株。该组总体上包括9种HA-MRSA菌株、7种CA-MRSA菌株、2种MRSA菌株和18种其它菌株。A panel of 36 clinical isolates was used to represent circulating strains, including strains belonging to 5 homologous cell lineages representing the vast majority of globally prevalent CA-MRSA (community-associated-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). Also included are HA-MRSA (hospital associated MRSA) and non-MRSA strains. Overall, the panel included 9 HA-MRSA strains, 7 CA-MRSA strains, 2 MRSA strains and 18 other strains.

编码IsdA、Hla、EsxA、Sta006、Sta011、Spa和ClfB的基因存在于所有36种菌株中。36种菌株中有11种缺乏EsxB的基因,36种菌株中有6种缺乏SdrD的基因。Genes encoding IsdA, Hla, EsxA, Sta006, Sta011, Spa and CIfB were present in all 36 strains. Eleven of the 36 strains lacked the EsxB gene, and 6 of the 36 strains lacked the SdrD gene.

在该组中编码的IsdA序列有95-100%相同,该蛋白质在稳定生长期的铁限制条件下表达。在30/36SdrD+ve种组成员中编码的SdrD序列有95-100%相同。在该组中,编码的EsxA序列100%相同;在25种EsxB+ve菌株中编码的EsxB序列有95-100%相同。在该组中,编码的ClfB序列有93-100%相同,还发现在早期指数生长期该蛋白高度表面暴露。The IsdA sequence encoded in this group is 95-100% identical, and the protein is expressed under iron-limited conditions in the stationary growth phase. The encoded SdrD sequences were 95-100% identical among members of the 30/36SdrD +ve species group. In this group, the encoded EsxA sequences were 100% identical; the encoded EsxB sequences were 95-100% identical among the 25 EsxB +ve strains. In this group, the encoded CIfB sequence was 93-100% identical and the protein was also found to be highly surface exposed during early exponential growth phase.

编码的氨基酸序列中的保守性如下所示(%相同性):Conservation in the encoded amino acid sequences is shown below (% identity):

  抗原 Antigen   IsdA IsdA   ClfB ClfB   SdrD SdrD   Spa spa   Hla Hla   EsxA EsxA   EsxB EsxB   Sta006 Sta006   % %   95-100 95-100   97-100 97-100   88-100 88-100   98-100 98-100   97-100 97-100   100 100   95-100 95-100   99.7-100 99.7-100

筛选61种菌株的较大组中是否存在编码Hla和Sta006的基因以及它们的表达。该组覆盖了各种地理来源和各种ST及同种复杂类型的MRSA和MSSA菌株。9/61种菌株不表达Hla,而除一种以外所有的菌株表达Sta006(第61种菌株的数据不确定)。因此,仅依据Hla的疫苗不可能得到通用疫苗的充足覆盖度,但可通过加入Sta006克服该问题。A larger panel of 61 strains was screened for the presence and expression of the genes encoding Hla and Sta006. The group covers MRSA and MSSA strains of various geographic origins and various ST and homogeneous complex types. 9/61 strains did not express Hla, while all but one strains expressed Sta006 (data inconclusive for the 61st strain). Therefore, it is impossible to obtain sufficient coverage of a universal vaccine with a vaccine based on Hla alone, but this problem can be overcome by adding Sta006.

细胞毒性和细胞结合研究Cytotoxicity and Cell Binding Studies

利用HBMEC和A549细胞进行金黄色葡萄球菌重组抗原Hla、Hla-H35L、IsdA、IsdB、sta006、sta011和EsxAB的潜在细胞毒性分析。采用膜联蛋白V和碘化丙锭染色通过流式细胞术检测早期和晚期凋亡细胞的百分比。内皮细胞在24孔板中生长至完全汇合。然后将细胞与3种不同浓度(10μg/ml、1μg/ml、0.1μg/ml)的重组抗原温育24小时。利用TNF-α和戊二酰亚胺环己酮(CHX)的组合作为阳性对照,据报道说该组合诱导内皮细胞凋亡。仅与PBS缓冲液温育是阴性对照。然后通过FACS进行分析。Potential cytotoxicity analysis of S. aureus recombinant antigens Hla, Hla-H35L, IsdA, IsdB, sta006, sta011 and EsxAB using HBMEC and A549 cells. The percentages of early and late apoptotic cells were detected by flow cytometry using annexin V and propidium iodide staining. Endothelial cells were grown to full confluence in 24-well plates. Cells were then incubated with recombinant antigen at 3 different concentrations (10 μg/ml, 1 μg/ml, 0.1 μg/ml) for 24 hours. A combination of TNF-[alpha] and cyclohexanone glutarimide (CHX), which was reported to induce apoptosis in endothelial cells, was used as a positive control. Incubation with PBS buffer only is a negative control. Analysis was then performed by FACS.

抗原无一对HBMEC或A549细胞诱导细胞毒性。实际上,与对照细胞相比,活细胞群体的百分数在最多达24小时的温育期间维持基本恒定。相反,TNF-α和CHX的组合诱导凋亡细胞数量增加25%。None of the antigens induced cytotoxicity against HBMEC or A549 cells. Indeed, the percentage of viable cell population remained essentially constant during up to 24 hours of incubation compared to control cells. In contrast, the combination of TNF-α and CHX induced a 25% increase in the number of apoptotic cells.

HBMEC也用作检验金黄色葡萄球菌重组抗原与人内皮细胞结合的体外模型。37℃,在加湿气氛中,利用补加了10%热灭活胎牛血清、10%NuSerum、2mM谷氨酰胺、1mM丙酮酸盐、1%非必需氨基酸、1%MEM维生素、100单位/毫升青霉素和100μg/ml链霉素的RPMI 1640培养基培养HBMEC至汇合。通过间接免疫荧光检验重组抗原与细胞的结合,通过FACS分析。结合阳性的细胞检测为相对于阴性对照(非特异性抗体识别)的净平均荧光强度。在4℃进行结合实验。各重组抗原的特异性小鼠多克隆抗体用作一抗,利用R-藻红蛋白-偶联的山羊抗-小鼠IgG二抗检测结合。作为阴性对照,HBMEC与用荧光标记二抗检测的第一多克隆抗体温育,或仅有荧光标记的二抗。已知的表面暴露GBS抗原的结合用作阳性对照。HBMEC was also used as an in vitro model to test the binding of S. aureus recombinant antigens to human endothelial cells. 37°C, in a humidified atmosphere, supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 10% NuSerum, 2mM glutamine, 1mM pyruvate, 1% non-essential amino acids, 1% MEM vitamins, 100 units/ml HBMECs were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium with penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin to confluence. Binding of recombinant antigen to cells was examined by indirect immunofluorescence and analyzed by FACS. Binding-positive cells were detected as net mean fluorescence intensity relative to negative controls (non-specific antibody recognition). Binding experiments were performed at 4°C. Mouse polyclonal antibodies specific for each recombinant antigen were used as primary antibodies, and binding was detected with R-phycoerythrin-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG secondary antibodies. As a negative control, HBMEC were incubated with primary polyclonal antibody detected with fluorescently labeled secondary antibody, or fluorescently labeled secondary antibody alone. Binding of known surface-exposed GBS antigens was used as a positive control.

Hla和Hla-H35L是能强效结合内皮细胞的唯一抗原。还检验了这两种抗原的溶血活性。Hla and Hla-H35L were the only antigens that strongly bound endothelial cells. The hemolytic activity of these two antigens was also examined.

利用去纤维蛋白的绵羊和家兔血液,通过分光光度法试验检测它们的溶血活性。37℃,将血液与两种蛋白质的1∶4连续稀释液温育30分钟。与水温育(导致渗透性溶解)和与金黄色葡萄球菌蛋白温育是阳性对照;血液与PBS+BSA 0.5%温育作为阴性对照。Using defibrinated sheep and rabbit blood, their hemolytic activity was tested by spectrophotometric assay. Blood was incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C with 1:4 serial dilutions of the two proteins. Incubation with water (resulting in osmotic lysis) and incubation with S. aureus protein were positive controls; incubation of blood with PBS+BSA 0.5% was a negative control.

重组天然Hla对家兔红细胞显示溶血活性,但其H35L突变体形式没有溶血活性。该突变体的溶血活性比野生型至少低150倍。两种蛋白质对绵羊血液均无溶血活性。Recombinant natural Hla shows hemolytic activity on rabbit erythrocytes, but its H35L mutant form has no hemolytic activity. The hemolytic activity of this mutant is at least 150 times lower than that of the wild type. Neither protein had hemolytic activity on sheep blood.

因此,候选金黄色葡萄球菌重组疫苗对A549上皮细胞系和HBMEC内皮细胞系不显示细胞毒性。重要的是,已知能在宿主细胞的质膜内形成孔的Hla(一种分泌型毒素)能结合A549细胞但不对它们诱导细胞毒性;其还能诱导家兔红细胞的溶血作用。相反,重组Hla-H35L是含有单氨基酸取代的变体毒素从而不能形成胞质裂解孔,其在人细胞系和家兔红细胞中均不诱导细胞破坏。这些发现表明Hla的这种突变体形式可更安全地用于疫苗组合物。其它抗原无一显示能结合宿主细胞。Therefore, the candidate S. aureus recombinant vaccine did not show cytotoxicity against the A549 epithelial cell line and the HBMEC endothelial cell line. Importantly, Hla, a secreted toxin known to form pores in the plasma membrane of host cells, binds to A549 cells without inducing cytotoxicity to them; it also induces hemolysis of rabbit erythrocytes. In contrast, recombinant Hla-H35L, a variant toxin containing a single amino acid substitution so as not to form a cytoplasmic lytic pore, did not induce cell destruction in both human cell lines and rabbit erythrocytes. These findings suggest that this mutant form of Hla may be used in vaccine compositions more safely. None of the other antigens were shown to bind host cells.

佐剂制剂Adjuvant preparation

用氢氧化铝配制所选的金黄色葡萄球菌蛋白候选抗原,单独配制或作为蛋白质的组合,含或不含荚膜多糖偶联物。优化制剂的pH和克分子渗透压浓度。Selected S. aureus protein candidate antigens were formulated with aluminum hydroxide, either alone or as a combination of proteins, with or without capsular polysaccharide conjugates. The pH and osmolality of the formulation are optimized.

抗原是EsxA-B、Sta006、Sta011、Hla-H35L、SdrD、IsdA、IsdA40-184、Sta019、Sta021、Sta073、ClfB45-552、SdrD53-592、SasF和IsdB。这些抗原配制成100μg/ml的单价抗原,或配制成各为50μg/ml的组合抗原。加入5μg/ml、10μg/ml或25μg/ml的5型或8型菌株的荚膜糖偶联物。利用10mM组氨酸缓冲液(pH 6.5)配制的2mg/ml氢氧化铝,含9mg/ml NaCl。Antigens were EsxA-B, Sta006, Sta011, Hla-H35L, SdrD, IsdA, IsdA40-184 , Sta019, Sta021, Sta073, CIfB45-552 , SdrD53-592 , SasF and IsdB. These antigens were formulated as monovalent antigens at 100 [mu]g/ml, or as combined antigens at 50 [mu]g/ml each. Capsular glycoconjugates of type 5 or type 8 strains were added at 5 μg/ml, 10 μg/ml or 25 μg/ml. 2 mg/ml aluminum hydroxide in 10 mM histidine buffer (pH 6.5), containing 9 mg/ml NaCl.

可以调整含或不含偶联物的所有单价和组合制剂至所需pH和克分子渗透压浓度。制剂的pH为6.2-7.3,克分子渗透压浓度为248-360mOsm/kg。制剂中排除甘油,因为其对克分子渗透压浓度有负面影响。All monovalent and combination formulations, with or without conjugates, can be adjusted to the desired pH and osmolarity. The pH of the preparation is 6.2-7.3, and the osmolality is 248-360 mOsm/kg. Glycerol was excluded from the formulation because of its negative impact on osmolality.

除了IsdA、IsdA40-184、Sta019和Sta073,各种单价和组合制剂中的所有测试蛋白质均良好吸附于氢氧化铝佐剂。With the exception of IsdA, IsdA 40-184 , Sta019 and Sta073, all tested proteins in various monovalent and combination formulations adsorbed well to aluminum hydroxide adjuvant.

各Sta006、Sta011、EsxA-B和Hla-H35L蛋白完全吸附,可使它们解吸而不改变它们的吸附前电泳分布。The individual Sta006, Sta011, EsxA-B and Hla-H35L proteins were completely adsorbed, allowing their desorption without altering their pre-adsorption electrophoretic profiles.

Sta006、Sta011、EsxA-B和Hla-H35L组合中的各抗原完全吸附,对于佐剂无抗原间竞争。除了IsdA40-184,Sta006、Sta011、EsxA-B和IsdA40-184组合中的各抗原也完全吸附,特性与单价蛋白相同。对于两种组合,可使抗原解吸而不改变它们的吸附前电泳分布。Each antigen in the combination of Sta006, Sta011, EsxA-B and Hla-H35L was completely adsorbed, and there was no competition between antigens for the adjuvant. In addition to IsdA 40-184 , each antigen in the combination of Sta006, Sta011, EsxA-B and IsdA 40-184 was also completely adsorbed with the same properties as the monovalent protein. For both combinations, the antigens can be desorbed without changing their pre-adsorption electrophoretic distribution.

额外存在的5型和/或8型偶联物也不改变抗原的吸附或解吸特征,例如与Sta006+Sta011+EsxA-B组合。The additional presence of type 5 and/or type 8 conjugates also does not alter the adsorption or desorption characteristics of the antigen, for example in combination with Sta006+Sta011+EsxA-B.

进行短稳定性研究(2周,4℃)以评估单价制剂的稳定性和抗原完整性。测试的所有制剂在它们的pH和克分子渗透压浓度下稳定。所有抗原维持完全吸附于佐剂。所有抗原保持它们的解吸特征。解吸后没有证据表明抗原的降解或凝聚增加。A short stability study (2 weeks, 4°C) was performed to assess the stability and antigenic integrity of the monovalent formulations. All formulations tested were stable at their pH and osmolality. All antigens remained fully adsorbed to the adjuvant. All antigens retained their desorption characteristics. There was no evidence of increased degradation or aggregation of the antigen after desorption.

效力检验efficacy test

检验各抗原sta006、sta011、sta012、sta017、sta019、sta021和sta028抵御1.2x107cfu的Newman菌株(5型)静脉内攻击的能力。结果示于图1。与对照相比,所有抗原降低细菌数,sta006、sta011和sta019的结果最佳。The ability of each antigen sta006, sta011, sta012, sta017, sta019, sta021 and sta028 to resist 1.2×10 7 cfu of Newman strain (type 5) intravenous challenge was tested. The results are shown in Figure 1. All antigens reduced the number of bacteria compared to the control, with the best results for sta006, sta011 and sta019.

实验SA-10-a检验了抗原组合的效力。6组12只CD-1小鼠接受均添加氢氧化铝佐剂的阴性对照(PBS)、IsdB、或以下组合之一:(i)EsxAB+Hla-H35L;(ii)Sta006+Sta011+EsxAB;(iII)Sta006+Sta011+EsxAB+Hla-H35L;或(iv)Sta006+Sta011+IsdA40-184+EsxAB。在第0天和第14天进行两次给药。第24天时,小鼠接受3x108cfu Newman菌株葡萄球菌,每24小时评估各组中的存活率,共2周。结果示于图2。14天后,阳性对照组中25%的动物存活,但在组(ii)中50%的动物存活,组(iii)和(iv)中58%的动物存活,组(i)中75%存活。Experiment SA-10-a examined the potency of antigen combinations. 6 groups of 12 CD-1 mice received negative control (PBS), IsdB, or one of the following combinations all added with aluminum hydroxide adjuvant: (i) EsxAB+Hla-H35L; (ii) Sta006+Sta011+EsxAB; (iii) Sta006+Sta011+EsxAB+Hla-H35L; or (iv) Sta006+Sta011+IsdA 40-184 +EsxAB. Two doses were performed on day 0 and day 14. On day 24, mice received 3x108 cfu Newman strain Staphylococci and survival in each group was assessed every 24 hours for 2 weeks. The results are shown in Figure 2. After 14 days, 25% of the animals survived in the positive control group, but 50% of the animals survived in group (ii), 58% of the animals survived in groups (iii) and (iv), and 58% of the animals in group (i) survived. ) 75% survived.

实验SA-10-b采用相同的方法检验:(i)ClfB45-552+Hla-H35L+Sta006+EsxAB;(ii)ClfB45-552+Sta011+Sta006+EsxAB;(iii)ClfB45-552+IsdA40-184+Sta006+EsxAB;或(iv)SdrD53-592+IsdA40-184+Sta006+EsxAB。结果示于图3。14天后,阳性对照组和组(ii)中25%的动物存活,但在组(iv)中33%的动物存活,组(i)中75%的动物存活,组(iii)中83%的动物存活。Experiment SA-10-b was tested by the same method: (i) ClfB 45-552 + Hla-H35L + Sta006 + EsxAB; (ii) ClfB 45-552 + Sta011 + Sta006 + EsxAB; (iii) ClfB 45-552 + IsdA 40-184 +Sta006+EsxAB; or (iv) SdrD 53-592 +IsdA 40-184 +Sta006+EsxAB. The results are shown in Figure 3.

还利用其它组合免疫小鼠。这些组合通常添加氢氧化铝佐剂(参见上文),在第0和14天给予。在CD1小鼠中进行免疫,每组12只。在第24天,用致死剂量的活细菌攻击小鼠,然后再追踪14天的存活情况。为作比较,PBS用作阴性对照,IsdB作为阳性对照[2]。Mice were also immunized with other combinations. These combinations are usually adjuvanted with aluminum hydroxide (see above) and given on days 0 and 14. Immunization was carried out in CD1 mice, 12 in each group. On day 24, mice were challenged with a lethal dose of live bacteria and followed for an additional 14 days for survival. For comparison, PBS was used as a negative control and IsdB as a positive control [2].

实验SA-11检验:(i)5型偶联物与EsxAB+Sta006+Sta011的组合;(ii)EsxAB+Sta019+Sta006+Sta011;(iii)5型偶联物+Hla-H35L+Sta006+Sta011;(iv)EsxAB+Hla-H35L+Sta006+Sta011;或(v)EsxAB+IsdA40-184+Sta006+Sta011。攻击后14天,阴性对照动物均死亡,但42%的阳性对照动物存活。测试组中的存活结果如下所示:(i)67%;(ii)42%;(iii)75%;(iv)33%;和(v)25%。Experiment SA-11 test: (i) combination of type 5 conjugate and EsxAB+Sta006+Sta011; (ii) EsxAB+Sta019+Sta006+Sta011; (iii) type 5 conjugate+Hla-H35L+Sta006+Sta011 ; (iv) EsxAB+Hla-H35L+Sta006+Sta011; or (v) EsxAB+IsdA 40-184 +Sta006+Sta011.

合并研究SA-10、SA-11、SA-12和SA-14的存活数据以评估与PBS或IsdB相比的两种组合的效力。“Combo-1”是EsxAB+Hla-H35L+Sta006+Sta011(包含SEQ ID NO:241、150、246和247的多肽)。“Combo-2”是EsxAB+IsdA40-184+Sta006+Sta011。比较14天后,48只小鼠的各组的中值存活时间。PBS和IsdB组的中值存活时间为1天,“Combo-1”和“Combo-2”组中小鼠的中值存活时间为14天。通过t-检验比较中值存活持续时间的差异:“Combo-1”组中的存活在统计学上优于PBS组(p<0.0001)和IsdB组(p<0.0001);“Combo-2”组中的存活在统计学上优于PBS组(p<0.0001)和IsdB组(p=0.0049)。这些数据示于图5。Survival data from studies SA-10, SA-11, SA-12 and SA-14 were pooled to assess the efficacy of the two combinations compared to PBS or IsdB. "Combo-1" is EsxAB+Hla-H35L+Sta006+Sta011 (comprising polypeptides of SEQ ID NO: 241, 150, 246 and 247). "Combo-2" is EsxAB+IsdA 40-184 +Sta006+Sta011. After 14 days, the median survival times of the groups of 48 mice were compared. The median survival time of the PBS and IsdB groups was 1 day, and the median survival time of the mice in the "Combo-1" and "Combo-2" groups was 14 days. Differences in median survival duration were compared by t-test: Survival in "Combo-1" group was statistically better than PBS group (p<0.0001) and IsdB group (p<0.0001);"Combo-2" group Survival in PBS group was statistically better than that of PBS group (p<0.0001) and IsdB group (p=0.0049). These data are shown in Figure 5.

图6显示Combo-1和Combo-2在脓肿模型中的数据。攻击后,分离小鼠的肾脏,然后匀浆并接种。cfu计数表明脓肿形成水平。图6显示一个实验的数据。数据以下的数值显示相比于PBS组的降低的对数。两个组合组中,降低大于单用IsdB,其中Combo-1的U-检验(单尾)值为0.0001,Combo-2的为0.0005。在第二实验的两个组合组中也观察到相同作用,其中不包括IsdB组。Figure 6 shows the data of Combo-1 and Combo-2 in the abscess model. After challenge, the kidneys of mice were isolated, then homogenized and inoculated. The cfu count indicates the level of abscess formation. Figure 6 shows data from one experiment. Values below the data show the log reduction compared to the PBS group. In the two combination groups, the reduction was greater than IsdB alone, where the U-test (one-tailed) value of Combo-1 was 0.0001 and that of Combo-2 was 0.0005. The same effect was also observed in the two combination groups of the second experiment, which did not include the IsdB group.

其它实验比较了Combo-1、IsdB或PBS获得的抵御以下3种不同菌株的保护作用:Staph-19、FPR3757(USA300)和Lac(USA300)。每组44只小鼠,结果如下所示(也参见图12),包括存活部分的单尾p-值,其中:P1比较Combo-1与PBS;P2比较Combo-1与IsdB;P3比较PBS与IsdB:Other experiments compared the protection obtained by Combo-1, IsdB or PBS against 3 different strains: Staph-19, FPR3757 (USA300) and Lac (USA300). 44 mice per group, the results are shown below (see also Figure 12), including one-tailed p-values for the surviving fraction, where: P1 compares Combo-1 to PBS; P2 compares Combo-1 to IsdB; P3 compares PBS to IsdB:

其它实验显示与单用佐剂(氢氧化铝)或IsdB免疫相比,用Newman、USA100、CC30和USA300菌株攻击后添加佐剂的Combo1降低CFU计数。图10显示四种攻击菌株的CFU值(log/ml)。用Combo1获得最低的计数,各情况中p<0.015。还评估了脓肿面积,Combo1-免疫小鼠中的也较低(例如,图11)。Additional experiments showed that adjuvanted Combo 1 reduced CFU counts after challenge with Newman, USA100, CC30 and USA300 strains compared to immunization with adjuvant (aluminum hydroxide) or IsdB alone. Figure 10 shows the CFU values (log/ml) of the four challenge strains. The lowest counts were obtained with Combo1, p<0.015 in each case. Abscess area was also assessed and was lower in Combol-immunized mice (eg, FIG. 11 ).

其它实验显示Combo1在败血症模型中对临床相关菌株提供高度保护作用,获得的存活%总是高于IsdB。图12显示用Newman、ST-80、FPR3757或Lac菌株攻击时,Combo1-免疫小鼠(每组40只,3次实验)的中值存活是完全的15天,存活小鼠的比例≥75%。相反,Newman和ST-80攻击后的IsdB-免疫小鼠的中值存活仅有1天,所有四种攻击菌株的存活<65%。Other experiments have shown that Combo1 confers high protection against clinically relevant strains in a sepsis model, with %survival achieved always above IsdB. Figure 12 shows that when challenged with Newman, ST-80, FPR3757 or Lac strains, the median survival of Combo1-immunized mice (40 per group, 3 experiments) was a complete 15 days, and the proportion of surviving mice was ≥75% . In contrast, the median survival of IsdB-immunized mice following Newman and ST-80 challenge was only 1 day, with <65% survival for all four challenge strains.

比较Combo1与其单独的多肽Comparing Combo1 with its individual peptides

进行各种测试以比较Combo1与其4种单独的多肽(即,EsxAB、Hla-H35L、Sta006、Sta011)以及IsdB与无抗原阴性对照。Various tests were performed to compare Combol with its 4 individual polypeptides (ie, EsxAB, Hla-H35L, Sta006, Sta011) and IsdB with no antigen negative control.

检验免疫动物血清的调理吞噬活性。利用(i)单独的四种多肽,(ii)所述多肽的所有配对,(iii)所有三重组合或(iv)完整的Combo1组合得到血清。为作比较,利用抗-IsdB血清。该试验中,免疫前和阴性对照血清显示对Newman菌株无杀伤作用。在第一实验中:抗-IsdB血清显示27%的杀伤;抗4种单独多肽中每一种的血清显示26-34%的杀伤;所有的多种多肽组合显示至少34%的杀伤;Combo-1产生的血清显示39%的杀伤。在第二实验中:Combo-1显示43%的杀伤,但抗-IsdB血清杀伤略好;所有单一的或利用Combo-1多肽的多种多肽血清显示至少26%的杀伤。Test the opsonophagocytosis activity of immunized animal serum. Sera were obtained using (i) the four polypeptides alone, (ii) all pairs of said polypeptides, (iii) all triplet combinations or (iv) the complete Combo1 combination. For comparison, anti-IsdB serum was used. In this test, pre-immunization and negative control sera showed no killing effect on Newman strain. In the first experiment: Anti-IsdB serum showed 27% killing; Anti-4 individual polypeptides showed 26-34% killing; All multiple polypeptide combinations showed at least 34% killing; Combo- 1 The resulting serum showed 39% killing. In the second experiment: Combo-1 showed 43% killing, but anti-IsdB sera killed slightly better; all single or multiple polypeptide sera with Combo-1 polypeptide showed at least 26% killing.

其它实验观察到通过将免疫家兔的抗血清递送给小鼠(每组20只,8周龄CD1小鼠)实现的被动保护作用。4组接受用EsxAB、Hla-H35L、Sta006和Sta011之一免疫的家兔的200μl血清;第5组接受50μl各血清(共200μl)。其它两组接受IsdB-免疫家兔的血清或盐水+佐剂免疫家兔的血清。15分钟后,腹膜内攻击小鼠(108CFU Newman菌株),14天后评估死亡率。结果如下所示:Other experiments observed passive protection by delivering antisera from immunized rabbits to mice (20 per group, 8-week-old CD1 mice). Group 4 received 200 μl of serum from rabbits immunized with one of EsxAB, Hla-H35L, Sta006 and Sta011; Group 5 received 50 μl of each serum (200 μl in total). The other two groups received sera from IsdB-immunized rabbits or saline+adjuvant immunized rabbits. Fifteen minutes later, mice ( 108 CFU Newman strain) were challenged intraperitoneally and mortality was assessed 14 days later. The result looks like this:

在其它实验中,检测CD1小鼠中诱导的特异性抗体水平以评估Combo1中4种多肽的免疫原性。组合物包括各20μg的四种单独多肽,或4x10μg的组合。组合物包含氢氧化铝佐剂。通过Luminex 4Plex试验测定抗原特异性IgG的血清水平。如图9所示,所有4种多肽的本身或组合在CD1小鼠中显示高度免疫原性。在各情况中,组合给予时抗某多肽的滴度高于单独给予时(比较居中和右侧的配对)。In other experiments, the level of specific antibodies induced in CD1 mice was detected to evaluate the immunogenicity of the 4 polypeptides in Combo1. Compositions included 20 μg each of the four individual polypeptides, or 4x10 μg in combination. The composition includes an aluminum hydroxide adjuvant. Serum levels of antigen-specific IgG were determined by the Luminex 4Plex assay. As shown in Figure 9, all four polypeptides were highly immunogenic in CD1 mice by themselves or in combination. In each case, titers against a polypeptide were higher when administered in combination than when administered alone (compare center and right pairings).

其它实验比较Combo-1或其4种单独多肽实现的保护作用。也包括IsdB以供比较。Newman菌株攻击后15天的存活动物比例(每组40只动物),和各天的平均(中值)存活如下所示,包括与PBS+佐剂阴性对照相比较的存活部分的单尾p-值:Other experiments compared the protection achieved by Combo-1 or its four individual polypeptides. IsdB is also included for comparison. The proportion of animals surviving 15 days after Newman strain challenge (40 animals per group), and the mean (median) survival for each day are shown below, including one-tailed p-values for the surviving fraction compared to the PBS+adjuvant negative control :

利用小鼠脓肿模型比较4种单独的多肽与Combo1组合。在一些实验中,用IsdB免疫小鼠以供比较。给抗原添加氢氧化铝作为佐剂,单独的佐剂用作阴性对照。图7显示4种不同菌株攻击后动物肾脏中的细菌数。观察到Combo1组合的平均计数最低。Comparison of 4 individual peptides in combination with Combo1 using a mouse abscess model. In some experiments, mice were immunized with IsdB for comparison. Aluminum hydroxide was added to the antigen as an adjuvant and the adjuvant alone was used as a negative control. Figure 7 shows the number of bacteria in the kidneys of animals after challenge with 4 different strains. The Combo1 combination was observed to have the lowest mean count.

用(i)单独的四种多肽,(ii)所有配对,(iii)所有三重组合或(iv)完整的Combo1组合免疫后进行攻击实验。单用IsdB或缓冲液进行比较。用5x108CFU Newman菌株攻击后,每组24只小鼠的存活(3次实验)示于图13。IsdB的中值存活只有2天。各Combo1多肽的中值存活为1-6天。多肽配对获得的中值存活为2-11天。三重组合获得的中值存活为8-15天。完全的Combo1组合得到的中值存活为完整的15天,59%的小鼠活了如此长的时间(相比之下,利用IsdB仅为35%)。Challenge experiments were performed after immunization with (i) the four polypeptides alone, (ii) all pairs, (iii) all triplet combinations, or (iv) the complete Combo1 combination. Comparisons were made with IsdB alone or buffer. The survival of 24 mice per group (3 experiments) after challenge with 5x10 8 CFU of Newman strain is shown in FIG. 13 . The median survival for IsdB was only 2 days. The median survival for each Combol polypeptide was 1-6 days. The median survival obtained for polypeptide pairings was 2-11 days. The median survival obtained with the triple combination was 8-15 days. The full Combo1 combination gave a median survival of a full 15 days, 59% of mice surviving this long (compared to only 35% with IsdB).
